The technical details behind this lens
The Leica DG 8-18mm f/2.8-4.0 Wide Angle Lens from Panasonic is a 16-36mm equivalent lens that blends optical excellence with durable, refined physical design for Micro Four Thirds mirror less cameras.
Excellent image quality
Designed in collaboration with Leica, this lens employs a series of low dispersion and aspherical elements to realize sharp and clear imagery with controlled fringing and aberrations, and a Nano Surface Coating also helps to minimize flare and ghosting for increased contrast and colour accuracy.
Durable construction
The durable metal lens body is splash, dust, and freeze proof for use in trying environmental conditions, and a fast 240 fps auto focus drive suits both photo and video shooting in a variety of working situations.
