The Panasonic Lumix S 24mm f/1.8 lens is a sleek and compact wide-angle prime designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras. It features a 24mm focal length that suits landscape, nature, interior, and architectural photography and a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture that provides for better shallow depth of field control. On APS-C models, this lens provides a 36mm equivalent focal length. Optically, this twelve-elements-in-eleven-groups lens features three aspherical elements, three extra-low dispersion elements, and one ultra extra-low dispersion elements to minimise chromatic aberration and colour fringing for improved clarity and colour accuracy. This Lumix S lens offers high resolution sharpness and performance to support 4K video. A linear auto motor suppresses focus breathing to deliver smooth, precise, and quiet focusing performance. In addition, a linear focus ring control for mechanical-based follow focus systems enables the focus to move at a constant speed in accordance with the rotating angle of the focus ring while the micro-step aperture control for video applications affords smooth exposure changes. For use in harsher environments, this lens is dust-, moisture, and freeze-resistant. It has a rounded nine-blade diaphragm which contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when using selective focus technique. Front and rear lens caps as well as a lens hood are supplied with the lens.
