Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm f/2.8 ASPH. MEGA O.I.S. Lens

Optimized for close-up shooting, the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm f/2.8 ASPH. MEGA O.I.S. from Panasonic is a short-telephoto, 90mm equivalent prime for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Designed to strict tolerances in collaboration with Leica, the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm's optical design makes use of aspherical and extra-low dispersion glass elements to reduce aberrations and distortion for notable sharpness, clarity, and color accuracy. Multi-coated elements in the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm also contribute to a reduction in lens flare and a floating elements system helps to maintain consistent image quality throughout the focusing range. As a macro lens, a maximum magnification of 1:1 is possible with the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm for life-size rendering, along with a minimum focusing distance of 5.9" for working with close-up subjects. An internal focusing mechanism maintains the overall length of the lens during use and MEGA O.I.S. is also featured in the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm to reduce the appearance of camera shake when shooting handheld.

The short telephoto prime lens, the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm, is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless digital cameras and provides a 90mm equivalent focal length. Ideal for macro shooting, the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm offers a life-size 1:1 maximum magnification along with a minimum focusing distance of 5.9" to suit working with close-up subjects. One extra-low dispersion element in the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm is used to control chromatic aberrations and color fringing for increased clarity and color accuracy. Additionally, an aspherical element is featured in the optical design of the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm to reduce spherical aberration and distortion for improved sharpness and resolution. Individual elements of the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm have been multi-coated to effectively reduce lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast when working in strong lighting conditions. An internal focusing mechanism along with a floating elements design in the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm promotes faster, more responsive focusing performance as well as consistent image quality throughout the focusing range. A focus limit switch lets you adjust the focusing range of the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm from 5.9" to infinity or from 1.6' to infinity for faster focusing performance when working with distant subjects. MEGA Optical Image Stabilizer in the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm minimizes the appearance of camera shake to benefit handheld shooting in difficult lighting conditions. A rounded seven-blade diaphragm in the Panasonic Leica DG Macro-Elmarit 45mm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
