Four Thirds System
Panasonic has unveiled today a new standard zoom interchangeable lens and a new
telephoto zoom interchangeable lens.
Panasonic has unveiled today a new standard zoom interchangeable lens designed
specifically for the cameras compatible with Micro Four Thirds System standard.
Suitable for a wide range of scenes from portrait to landscape photography, the
new LUMIX G VARIO 14-45mm/F3.5-5.6 ASPH./MEGA O.I.S. lens offers a zoom range of
14-45mm (35mm equivalent: 28-90mm) while featuring its ultra-compact size and
light weight. The aspheric lens element also improves optical performance by
minimizing distortion, even at the 28mm wide end.
The new LUMIX G VARIO 14-45mm/F3.5-5.6 ASPH./MEGA O.I.S. lens incorporates
Panasonic’s Mega O.I.S. optical image stabiliser, which makes it easy to shoot
super clear shots even in low-lit situations by suppressing the blur caused by a
hand shake. When the lens is mounted on the newly announced Lumix G Micro System
DMC-G1 camera, you can use the contrast AF system, which is implemented in the
DMC-G1 to offer a wide variety of convenient functions.
With its minimum focus distance of 30 cm even at full zoom, the new lens
provides a maximum photographic magnification of 0.34x (35mm equivalent). Seven
aperture blades give the aperture a rounded shape that, when shooting at larger
aperture, produces an attractive smoothness in out-of-focus areas. Featuring a
highly reliable metal mount, the new lens system uses multi-coated lens elements
that reduce ghosts and flare to an absolute minimum, helping deliver a high
optical performance.
Panasonic has unveiled today a new telephoto zoom interchangeable lens designed
specifically for the cameras compatible with Micro Four Thirds System standard.
The new LUMIX G VARIO 45-200mm/F4.0-5.6/MEGA O.I.S. lens offers a zoom range of
45-200mm (35mm equivalent: 90-400mm) while achieving minimum aberration at all
focal length, high-contrast representation and high colour reproduction by
implementing 3 ED lens elements.
The new LUMIX G VARIO 45-200mm/F4.0-5.6/MEGA O.I.S. lens incorporates
Panasonic’s Mega O.I.S. optical image stabiliser, which makes it easy to shoot
super clear shots even in telephoto shooting or in low-lit situations without
using a tripod by suppressing the blur caused by a hand shake. When the lens is

the contrast AF system, which is implemented in the DMC-G1 to offer a wide
