LEICA DG VARIO LENS 8-18mm / F2.8-4.0 ASPH. 8-18mm Micro Four Thirds wide-angle lens with zoom / 16-36mm (35mm cinema equivalent). Wider freedom of expression This wide-angle lens with zoom combines the performance of LEICA imaging with the convenience of portability. From ultra-large 16mm wide-angle landscape shots to standard 36mm (35mm focal length), the incredible precision of this LEICA DG lens creates a clear image from corner to corner. It can also use a 67mm filter for more creative photography and videography.This nifty, high-quality lens is designed to perform reliably in poor weather conditions, making it particularly suitable for outdoor use. LEICA DG Lens - top-quality optics Choose the LEICA DG Lens for top optical quality and performance. Naturally, these lenses meet the exacting quality standards of Leica Camera AG.Thanks to the advanced design of these lenses, you'll enjoy outstanding precision that extends right to the edges of your photographs. At the same time, all kinds of distortion have been prevented, resulting in sharp and precise images. This means you have the ideal tool for professional-level photography in your hands. Nanocoating - clarity from all angles Put an end to ghosting and lens flare. The system's lenses use a nanocoating. Panasonic originally developed this special, ultra-thin coating to reduce distracting reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear images, even when shooting a light source in the dark. Video support - perfect video shooting Video support gives users everything they need for recording on their LUMIX camera. Not only does it make aperture adjustments smoothly so there are no sudden changes in exposure, it's also quiet, which means the sound of the shot is better recorded. On top of all this, the superb AF performance of this lens captures excellent 4K video where precise focusing is crucial. Splash/dust/freeze-proof - more options for creativity Venture outside in almost any weather or shooting conditions. This lens is splash/dust/freeze-proofed to ensure it's durable enough for tough outdoor use. It protects the internal lens system from sand, rain, etc., making it perfect for shooting in harsh conditions. Now there's nothing stopping you from capturing the creative nature or landscape images you want. The lens supports this feature when used with splash/dust/ice-proof LUMIX cameras.
