Create a strong sense of realism with exquisite bokeh and a sense of space
Introducing the LUMIX S F1.8 Series 35mm lens. Ideal for snapshots and portraits, it empowers you to create images with a strong sense of realism, beautifully capturing a sense of space and depth. Focus breathing inhibition and seamless exposure control contribute to the beautifully smooth video capture. Expressive power is aligned with the rest of the F1.8 Series, so even as you change lenses, your sequence of images will boast high quality continuity.
Compact, lightweight design
With its compact, approximately 295g of light weight, the LUMIX S 35mm F1.8 features stunning mobility. The rugged dust/splash-resistant* design withstands use under harsh conditions even at 10 degrees below zero for high mobility. The filter diameter is 67mm, with a 9-blade circular aperture diaphragm.
*Dust and Splash Resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this lens is subjected to direct contact with dust and water.
High image quality with optimal lens design
The LUMIX S 35mm F1.8 is comprised of 11 lens elements in 9 groups including 3 aspherical lenses and 3 ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) lenses. The use of three aspherical lenses realizes both high descriptive performance and beautiful bokeh, which are common advantages to the series of all F1.8 lenses. The ED lens effectively suppresses chromatic aberration.
High descriptive performance in both photo shooting and video recording
The LUMIX S 35mm F1.8 also excels in video recording performance with a mechanism that suppresses focus breathing, which was a fatal problem of all interchangeable lenses designed for still image photography. Together with a micro-step aperture control for smooth exposure change, professional quality video can be recorded.
Highly practical LUMIX S Series F1.8 lenses
The LUMIX S 35mm F1.8 is the fourth addition to the series of F1.8 large-aperture lenses based on the L-Mount system standard. A total of four F1.8 lenses from the LUMIX S Series feature a common size and position of control parts to provide practical advantages in use. For example, when the camera is on a gimbal, it is easy to exchange lenses quickly with minimum adjustment of connected gears. Common filters can also be used thanks to the same diameter.
