PANASONIC LUMIX S 50mm f/1.8

Panasonic Lumix S 50mm f / 1.8 lens

Designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras, the Panasonic Lumix S 50mm f / 1.8 is a sleek and compact standard-length main camera. Its 50mm focal length is ideal for portraits, landscapes, and multipurpose shooting and provides a modestly bright f / 1.8 maximum aperture for shallow depth-of-field control. An extra-low dispersion element and an ultra-high refractive index element reduce chromatic aberration and color fringing to improve clarity and color accuracy, and the lens also provides excellent sharpness. A linear autofocus motor suppresses focus breath and delivers smooth, precise, and near-silent focus performance. Built for harsh environmental conditions, the lens also features a dust, moisture and freeze resistant design.
However, the standard-length prime lens designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras can also be used on APS-C models, where it provides a 75mm equivalent focal length.
The bright f / 1.8 maximum aperture offers control over depth of field and is well suited to working in low light conditions.
Three aspherical lenses including an extra-low dispersion element and an ultra-high refractive index element reduce chromatic aberration and color fringing to improve clarity and color accuracy.
The linear autofocus motor suppresses focus breath and delivers smooth, precise, and near-silent focus performance.
For the benefit of professional video applications, the linear focus ring control for mechanical focus tracking systems moves the focus at a constant speed according to the angle of rotation of the focus ring.
Sharpness and high resolution performance to support 4K video.
Smooth exposure changes via microstep aperture control for video applications.
The rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to pleasant bokeh quality when using selective focus techniques.
Dust, moisture and freeze resistant design for added protection against the elements.
