Not only does this lens benefit from the same uniformed size, but it also maintains the same position for the controls to provide a near identical centre of gravity. This is perfect for those needing quicker lens changes when their camera is mounted to a gimbal. As a result, Panasonic’s 18mm seamlessly integrates into the LUMIX S series to create a comprehensive set of lenses ready to tackle every shooting scenario. Premium Optical Performance Whilst this 18mm lens offers an extremely wide angle of view suitable for landscape, astro and architectural photography, its 18cm minimum focusing distance also lends itself well to close-range shots. This provides users with a unique sense of scale for some really creative portraiture. Combined with a wide, bright and fast f1.8 maximum aperture and a state-of-the-art build featuring 3 aspherical, 3 ED (Extra-Low Dispersion), 1 UED (Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion) and 1 UHR (Ultra High Refractive Index) elements, this Panasonic lens eradicates aberrations with ease for incredibly high-resolution results. Optimised for Video Thanks to Panasonic’s high-speed linear motor, this 18mm lens has impressive autofocusing capabilities that work smoothly and silently, reading the sensor at a maximum of 240 frames per second. This is perfect for tracking fast-moving subjects with precision whether you’re shooting wildlife, pets or even sport. Further reinforcing this lens as the perfect option for video is its ability to suppress focus breathing. This impressive mechanism achieves beautifully smooth videos that shift focus without changing the angle of view. Together with micro-step iris control for smooth exposure changes, this is an incredibly flexible lens that is fully optimised for hybrid shooters.
