Panasonic LUMIX S 24-105mm f/4 Macro O.I.S. Lens

Introduction

The PanasonicLUMIX S 24-105mm f/4 MACRO O.I.S.Lens is a versatile standard zoom lens covering wide-angle to medium-telephoto. Adding to its versatility, the lens also supports 0.5x macro shooting with a minimum focusing distance of 0.3m. The LUMIX 5-Axis Dual I.S. 2 system delivers powerful stabilisation performance to support handheld shooting at telephoto focal lengths.

A high-precision linear motor achieves sensor drive at a maximum speed of 480 fps for fast auto focusing. The lens also excels in video recording performance with a mechanism that suppresses focus breathing.

The lens unit comprises 16 lenses in 13 groups, and the use of 2 aspherical lenses and 2 ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lenses effectively suppresses chromatic aberration and achieves high resolution. The filter diameter is 77mm, with a 9-blade circular aperture diaphragm.

The L-Mount
Through the L-Mount Alliance, Leica Camera, Panasonic and Sigma are set to offer a user-friendly solution that will allow photographers to mix and match any of the three manufacturers APS-C and full-frame cameras with any lens from each others L-Mount product portfolios. The Alliance will provide customers with a diverse and future-proof range of products.

The L-Mount advantages are a large inner diameter of 51.6 mm that enables the realisation of extremely fast lenses and compact dimensions. The configuration of the lens-to-camera communication interface is future-proof and the L-Mount also offers an option for the construction of sealed systems that are resistant to dust and moisture. The L-Mount thereby opens up an almost limitless spectrum of new creative possibilities.
