Nope, there is no electronic communication with your panasonic camera and nikon lens 

You would need to check the filter size of you 25mm lens, and then order accordingly. 

Yes. Works great. I have used it with many old and new Nikon lenses with my GH5 camera. This adapter and my Nikon 10.5mm fisheye is one of my favorite combos. 

1. You could consult us or search the mount information online
2. You could find the mount information on your instruction book when purchase the lens/camera
3. The mount information may be showed on front of the lens, side of the lens, rear of the lens or on the lens cap, usually it is a 2 or 3 letter code such as: CN, FD, OM, MAF, NK, N/AIS or F/AX

 

The adapter will mount the lens and you will be able to use it manually. However, my copy of the adapter does not allow the lens to be fully mounted all the way until it clicks into place. It doesn't quite make it, but it's still very solidly mounted. Also, the manual aperture linkage doesn't work properly (on my copy, at least) so exposure is controlled only by shutter speed and/or ISO. You will be able to manually focus and zoom the lens but no VR, of course. It will be a frustrating experience. Instead, get a 14-140 Panasonic zoom if you can afford it!
