PANASONIC LEICA DG 25-50MM F/1.7

Versatility within a short telephoto range, the Leica DG Vario-Summilux 25-50mm f/1.7 ASPH., from Panasonic, is a 50-100mm equivalent zoom for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Ideal for portraits, fashion, events, and other mid-range subjects, this lens combines the useful focal length range with an impressively bright constant maximum aperture of f/1.7, advanced optics, and a portable form factor.

• The normal-to-short telephoto zoom is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and offers a 50-100mm equivalent focal length range.

• The super bright constant maximum aperture of f/1.7 excels in low-light conditions and offers impressive depth of field control throughout the zoom range.

• One aspherical element, three extra-low dispersion elements, and one ultra-high refractive index element combine to produce well-controlled images without color fringing, chromatic aberrations, and spherical aberrations.

• The linear AF motor and internal focusing system offer fast and quiet focusing performance along with virtually no focus breathing throughout the focus range from 11" to infinity.

• The focus clutch mechanism allows for intuitive switching between AF and MF modes, simply by sliding the focus ring, and if paired with select Lumix cameras, the focus ring control can be used to adjust the focus rotation feel.

• The physical aperture ring has a continuous, clickless design for smooth and silent aperture switching to benefit video applications.

• The splash, dust, and freeze-proof design benefits working in harsh weather conditions.

• The nine-blade rounded diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.

• Designed to match the Leica DG Vario-Summilux 10-25mm f/1.7 ASPH. These two zooms are nearly identical in terms of form factor and weight, share the same 77mm filter ring diameter, and have a unified color reproduction for seamless switching between the two lenses.
