Panasonic Lumix S PRO 16-35mm f/4 Lens
The LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4 is a versatile wide zoom lens that provides high resolution images despite its compact, lightweight profile. It boasts outstanding performance in both photo shooting and video recording.
This lens features 12 elements arranged in 9 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses, an ED lens, and a UHR lens. Their optimal alignment delivers excellent MTF performance, despite the lens’s compact size and light weight. The lens offers exceptional resolution, even at the corners when wide open, ensuring sharp and detailed images. Additionally, it provides beautiful, smooth bokeh while reducing double line bokeh and vignetting, making it ideal for photographers seeking both clarity and pleasing background blur. The filter size is 77 mm, with a 9-blade circular
aperture diaphragm.
This new lens also features a rugged dust/splash-resistant design to withstand use under harsh conditions down to temperatures of -10 degrees Celsius.
For the AF actuator, a double-magnet linear motor is integrated. It features high power despite its small size, achieving a maximum 480 fps high-speed sensor drive. This realizes fast, high precision AF to ensure that photo opportunities are never missed. Adoption of a focus clutch mechanism enables instant AF/MF switching and accurate manual focusing. The LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4 also excels in video recording performance with a mechanism that suppresses focus breathing.
