Panasonic’s new LUMIX S 28-200mm F4-7.1 MACRO OIS lens is official, and it claims the world’s smallest and lightest title in its high-magnification zoom lens category. The lens is available for purchase now at 6,298 yuan ($958 USD), but for a limited time during the first two days you can grab it for a special price of 4,998 yuan ($759 USD).
The lens also has macro capabilities for close up shots with 0.5x magnification
Here’s a closer look: the LUMIX S 28-200mm F4-7.1 MACRO OIS lens is ultra-compact, measuring φ77.3 x 93.4 mm and weighing only 413 grams. Despite its size, it offers an impressive zoom range covering wide-angle to telephoto (28mm-200mm). Macro capabilities allow for close-up shots with 0.5x magnification and a minimum focus distance of 14cm.
Optically, the lens is equipped with 17 elements in 13 groups, including specialized elements to ensure clarity and minimize distortion. A 9-blade aperture provides smooth control over bokeh for attractive background blur.
Image stabilization is a major perk. The lens features built-in OIS and is compatible with Panasonic’s 5-axis dual IS 2 system, ensuring sharp results even when shooting handheld.
The LUMIX S 28-200mm F4-7.1 MACRO OIS lens is built to withstand the elements with its dust-proof, splash-proof, and freeze-proof design, making it a great travel companion for photographers who prefer a single-lens solution for various shooting scenarios.
