Sleek and nimble

The Panasonic Lumix S 85mm f/1.8 is a sleek and compact short-telephoto prime lens meticulously crafted for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras. Its 85mm focal length is tailored for capturing exquisite portraits and facilitating selective shooting, while its modestly bright f/1.8 maximum aperture empowers photographers with precise depth-of-field control without compromising its streamlined design. Boasting an advanced optical design, this lens integrates a pair of extra-low dispersion elements, effectively mitigating color fringing and chromatic aberrations to achieve remarkable clarity and faithful color reproduction. Its linear autofocus (AF) motor ensures swift and accurate focusing performance, while its robust construction, featuring dust-, moisture-, and freeze-resistant design, enables photographers to confidently operate in challenging environmental conditions. Though primarily engineered for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras, this prime portrait-length lens is also compatible with APS-C models, delivering a 127.5mm equivalent focal length. The bright f/1.8 maximum aperture not only facilitates creative depth-of-field manipulation but also contributes to its compact form factor, making it an ideal companion for shooting in various lighting scenarios.

Versatility in every shot

Furthermore, the inclusion of two extra-low dispersion elements significantly reduces chromatic aberrations, enhancing overall image clarity and color accuracy. The lens's rounded nine-blade diaphragm ensures smooth and aesthetically pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques. The Lumix S 85mm F1.8 epitomizes superior maneuverability and expressive power, enabling photographers to craft stunning portraits and more with the uncompromising image quality synonymous with the Lumix brand. Its lightweight portability, coupled with its exceptional optical performance, makes it a versatile tool for capturing picture-perfect moments in any setting. Designed to withstand the rigors of professional use, its dust-, splash-, and freeze-resistant construction ensures reliable performance even in the harshest shooting conditions, withstanding temperatures as low as -10°C/14°F. Whether you're a seasoned photographer or a budding content creator, this lens is tailor-made for delivering exceptional results, be it in still photography or high-resolution video recording. The S-S85 lens construction comprises nine elements in eight groups, including two extra-low dispersion lenses, meticulously optimized to minimize aberrations and uphold unparalleled resolution throughout the entire image frame.
