Panasonic LUMIX Leica Vario-Elmar 100-400mm Lens

Get close

• Offering a 100-400mm (35mm equivalent of 200-800mm) focal length, this lens gives you the range you need to photograph sports action, wildlife, and nature photography. Whether photographing your son's championship game from the sidelines or capturing a moose grazing on a hillside, you've got the focal range to get close to your subject.

Built for adventure

• With such a large focal range you might expect to be hauling some heavy gear. But, with this Leica Vario-Elmar lens you get exceptional optical quality in a lens that's up to 2/3 smaller and 1/5 the weight of a comparable DSLR lens. The reduced size and weight makes it the ideal choice when shooting in far-flung corners of the globe, where every ounce counts.
• Built for use in the great outdoors, this lens features a splash- and dust-proof sealed body (when combined with splash and dustproof LUMIX G mirrorless cameras.) With this peace of mind you can focus your energy on your photography instead of worrying about your gear.

Find you focus

• Integrated POWER O.I.S. (optical image stabilizer) makes adjustments for small, quick movements and large, slow movements so you get crisp, clear photos even in low-light conditions. That means you can capture stunning images under the dim lights of the school auditorium during your daughter's soliloquy.
• Dual I.S. compatibility means you'll get optimal stability while shooting handheld.

High-quality construction

• ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) glass reduces chromatic aberration, delivering better colour quality and higher quality images.
• The aspherical lens design reduces spherical aberrations, delivering better detail and contrast resulting in superb image quality. The design reduces the overall number of elements needed so you get a more compact prime lens.
• Completing the high build quality is the built-in sliding lens hood. The integrated design lets you easily use the hood while on the fly and it cuts down on the number of accessories you need to carry.
• The lens-mounted controls offer incredible convenience when you're shooting on the fly. These switches let you easily change switch from AF to MF, turn the O.I.S off and on, and change the focusing distance from FULL to LIMIT.

Extreme Compatibility

• This premium lens is designed for Micro Four Thirds systems and is compatible with all Micro Four Thirds cameras, including Panasonic G-Series, and Olympus PEN and OM-D cameras.
