The new ELMARIT full-range F2.8 lens boasts brightness in all zoom ranges, and supports compositions utilising F2.8 brightness.
An optimal lens structure (two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lenses and one UED (Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion) lens) allows for high performance between the 70mm and 200mm zoom range. Along with Panasonic’s Nano Surface Coating technology, there’s also light-shielding technology eliminating unwanted light for clear, natural colour production and reduced flare.
