Hire Panasonic 12-60mm f2.8-4.0 Leica DG Vario-Elmarit ASPH Power OIS

This attractive lens is ideal for Micro Four Thirds users who’d like a zoom they can walk-around with freely. Offering a focal length that’s equivalent to 24-120mm, it’s small and lightweight and provides a fast and silent autofocus performance that doesn’t disturb video recordings. Sharpness in the centre of the frame at the wide end is impressive; however stopping it down by a couple of stops does see sharpness improve at the edges. The zoom ring is beautifully damped and its optical image stabilizer works well with Dual I.S/I.S2 systems offered by most Panasonic cameras. If it’s a resourceful MFT lens you require for stills or video it fits the bill nicely.

The details

Designed in collaboration with Leica, this versatile lens utilizes four aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion elements to deliver well-corrected, sharp image quality that is void of color fringing and distortions. The lens also makes use of a linear motor for fast, quiet, and precise autofocus performance, and the POWER Optical Image Stabilization system helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting. Additionally, the durable metal body of the lens renders it splash, dust, and freezeproof to suit its use in trying environmental conditions.

Standard zoom for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras, this lens provides a 24-120mm equivalent focal length range.
Four aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion elements contribute to minimizing chromatic and spherical aberrations and various distortions in order to produce a high degree of clarity, sharpness, and color accuracy.

POWER Optical Image Stabilization minimizes the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting, and also supports the Dual I.S. function for increased stabilization performance.
