Panasonic 50 mm F1.8 Lumix S

Panasonic Fixed Lens Lumix S 50mm F / 1.8 - Filters 67mm.

The LUMIX S 50mm F1.8 standard wide-aperture fixed focal length lens (S-S50) is the second in a new series of four F1.8 lenses based on the L-Mount system. All LUMIX S Series units have in common the size and position of the controls to ensure maximum convenience. If the camera is mounted on a gimbal, for example, changing the lens takes a few seconds and requires minimal adjustment of the connected equipment. Furthermore, the 67 mm thread, identical for all lenses, allows you to use the same filters.

The LUMIX S 50 mm F1.8 lens consists of 9 lenses divided into eight groups. In addition to an Extra-low Dispersion (ED) and Ultra-High Refractive Index (UHR) lens, three aspherical lenses are also included that improve image definition and achieve stunning bokeh - two benefits common to all F1 lenses. 8 of the series. The ED lens, on the other hand, effectively cancels chromatic aberrations. The lens has a 9-blade circular aperture diaphragm that creates perfect circles in the blurred background areas of movies shot with a large aperture.

The 50mm F1.8 lends itself to a wide variety of subjects, from portraits to landscapes, and is also great when shooting, because it eliminates the apparent zoom effect when changing the focus distance - the so-called focus breathing, typical of interchangeable lenses. This mechanism, developed by Panasonic for photographs and also applied to videomaking, ensures professional quality videos, also assisted by the micro-increment aperture for a smooth change of exposure.
With a compact size and a weight of only 300g, the LUMIX S 50mm F1.8 is the ideal companion for any photographic adventure. Solid and resistant to dust and splashes, it is designed to ensure easy use and all the freedom of movement you need even in prohibitive conditions, for example at a temperature of -10 ° C.
