Panasonic 14-42mm Lumix f3.5-5.6 MEGA O.I.S. Lens

The Panasonic G 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 ASPH Mega O.I.S is a standard zoom interchangeable lens designed specifically for the cameras compatible with Micro Four Thirds System standard which is compact and versitile. Suitable for a wide range of scenes from portrait to landscape photography, the lens offers a zoom range of 14-42mm (35mm equivalent: 28-84mm) while featuring its ultra-compact size and light weight. The aspherical lens element also improves optical performance by minimizing distortion, even at the 28mm wide end.

The lens incorporates Panasonic’s MEGA O.I.S. optical image stabilizer, which makes it easy to shoot super clear shots even in low-lit situations by suppressing the blur caused by a hand shake.

With its minimum focus distance of 30 cm even at full zoom, the lens provides a maximum photographic magnification of 0.32x (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.
