Thanks to the ultra-long zoom range of 35–100 mm (35 mm equivalent: 70–200 mm) and a fast f/2.8 aperture, you can create a soft, blurred background in portraits and close-ups. The lens also impresses with its fast shutter speeds, which allow you to ‘freeze’ fast-moving subjects in action scenes and sports photography. Thanks to its splash-, dust- and frost-proof design, it is also robust enough for outdoor photography. Combined with a splash-, dust- and frost-proof LUMIX camera, you can use the lens in almost any weather and let your creativity run wild.

Thanks to video support, every user can capture footage exactly as they envision it with their LUMIX camera. In addition to effortlessly adjusting the aperture setting without sudden changes in exposure, the silent operation is particularly impressive, optimising audio recording. Furthermore, the lens’s impressive autofocus performance is excellent for shooting 4K videos, where precise focusing is essential.

Capture subjects with ease or on the spur of the moment. Integrated directly into the lens, the Optical Image Stabilisation (O.I.S.) technology compensates for even the strongest movements and vibrations that can occur whilst taking photographs. This allows you to capture lifelike images without the need for a tripod. The extremely sharp images will impress you straight away. When mounted on a compatible LUMIX DSLM camera, the lens utilises the Dual I.S. (Image Stabilizer) system, ensuring even better performance.

Minimise unwanted light reflections – thanks to the nano-surface coating on the system lenses. This special, ultra-thin coating was developed by Panasonic to reduce distracting light reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear images even when shooting light sources in the dark.
