The Panasonic Lumix S PRO 70-200mm f/2.8 Lens (S-E70200E) is the current longest telephoto for the full frame L-mount camera system. Stunning optics meet superior engineering to produce a fantastic and one of the most asked for lenses the Leica-L mount system. Compatible with many cameras such as the Panasonic S1, S1R and S1H and the Sigma fp cameras. Offers a fast and constant f/2.8 maximum aperture to enable the capture of those instinctive wildlife moments. Houses several aspherical, ED, and UED elements, combined they optimise to give well-corrected imagery with high sharpness and accurate colour rendering. Complementing the optics is a double focus system, which utilises both a linear motor and a stepping motor, to provide especially fast and precise focusing performance. Additionally, the Panasonic 70-200mm f2.8 has an integrated optical image stabiliser, essential to capture amazing images even in low light situations.

Enhanced for professional use the Panasonic S Pro 70-200mm has a splash, dust, and freeze-proof design, of great benefit to working in inclement weather conditions, even down to -14°F. Provided with separate external tripod mount. As part of the LUMIX S PRO series, the 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S meets all LEICA standards. It delivers uncompromising quality and creative flexibility throughout the zoom range across the frame. Furthermore 5-Axis Dual I.S. 2 can be used with LUMIX S1R, S1 and S1H cameras with latest camera firmware.

Understanding: Aperture

Aperture is the opening in a camera lens that controls how much light enters the camera. It's measured in f-stops like f/2.8 or f/8. Lower f-stop numbers mean wider openings, letting in more light and creating a shallow depth of field (blurry background). Higher f-stop numbers mean smaller openings, letting in less light and creating a larger depth of field (more of the scene in focus). Aperture also affects the quality of out-of-focus areas in the image (bokeh).

Understanding: Lens Types

Different lenses have different purposes to achieve different styles of images, some popular ones include:
Prime Lens: Fixed focal length, sharp images, great for portraits and dark settings.
Zoom Lens: Variable focal length, versatile for different shots and everyday use..
Wide-Angle Lens: Captures wide scenes like landscapes.
Telephoto Lens: Magnifies distant subjects, ideal for sports & wildlife.
Macro Lens: Perfect for close-up photography of small subjects.
Fisheye Lens: Ultra-wide perspective, creates unique images.

Understanding: Lens Mounts

Different camera brands use different lens mounts, which are like connectors that attach lenses to camera bodies. Each mount is specific to a particular brand and camera series. For example, Canon uses the EF and RF mounts, Nikon uses the F mount, Sony uses the E mount for its mirrorless cameras. These mounts dictate which lenses are compatible with which cameras. Some brands offer adapters to use lenses from other systems, but it's essential to ensure compatibility for proper functionality and autofocus performance.

Understanding: Manual and Autofocus

Manual focus and autofocus are two ways to adjust the sharpness of a camera lens. With manual focus, you turn a ring on the lens to bring the subject into focus yourself, giving you full control over what appears sharp in the image. Autofocus, on the other hand, relies on the camera's built-in technology to automatically adjust the focus for you, usually by detecting contrast or phase differences in the scene. Autofocus can be convenient, especially for fast-moving subjects or when you need to capture a quick shot, whereas manual focus allows for precise adjustments and creative control over the final image.
