Versatile Telephoto Performance
The Panasonic Lumix S 70-200mm f/4 is an essential tool for photographers who require flexibility across a wide range of telephoto focal lengths. Whether you're shooting distant wildlife, fast-paced sports, or intimate portraits, this lens delivers sharp, well-corrected images with beautiful depth and detail. For APS-C cameras, the lens provides an extended focal length range of 105-300mm, making it even more versatile for long-distance shooting.
Constant Aperture for Consistent Exposure
With a constant f/4 aperture, this lens ensures consistent illumination throughout the zoom range. Whether you're zooming in or out, you can rely on stable exposure, allowing you to focus on composition and subject without worrying about adjusting settings.
Superior Optical Design for Sharp, Clear Imagery
Engineered with one aspherical element, one ultra-high refractive index element, and a combination of ultra extra-low dispersion (UED) and extra-low dispersion (ED) elements, the Lumix S 70-200mm excels at minimizing chromatic aberrations, color fringing, and distortions. The result is edge-to-edge sharpness, outstanding clarity, and true-to-life color accuracy across the entire zoom range.
Fast, Quiet Autofocus with Dual Focus System
The double focus system combines a linear motor and a stepping motor, providing fast, precise autofocus that is also incredibly quiet. This makes it ideal for capturing high-speed action as well as discreet video shooting, where silence is essential.
Optical Image Stabilization for Stable Handheld Shooting
Equipped with Optical Image Stabilizer (O.I.S.), the lens minimizes camera shake, allowing you to shoot sharp handheld images even in low light or at slower shutter speeds. The lens also supports Dual I.S. and Dual I.S. 2.0 when used with compatible Panasonic Lumix cameras, offering enhanced stabilization performance for even greater handheld shooting confidence.
Built to Perform in Tough Conditions
Designed for professional use, the Lumix S 70-200mm f/4 features a rugged, weather-sealed construction that is splash, dust, and freezeproof down to -14°F. This makes it perfect for outdoor photography in harsh conditions, ensuring that the lens can keep up with your demanding shooting environments.
Beautiful Bokeh and Creative Depth
The rounded nine-blade diaphragm creates smooth, attractive bokeh, helping your subjects stand out against beautifully blurred backgrounds. This feature is especially beneficial for portrait photographers looking to achieve a professional, artistic look in their images.
Removable Rotating Tripod Collar for Stability
For added versatility, the lens includes a removable rotating tripod collar, making it easy to stabilize the lens when mounted on a tripod or monopod. This is particularly useful for extended shooting sessions or when capturing high-precision telephoto shots.
