LUMIX S5 Features:
LUMIX 20-60mm f3.5-5.6 Zoom Lens
This wide-to-short telephoto zoom is designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 30-90mm equivalent focal length range in 35mm FF terms.
The optical formula includes 2 x aspherical elements and a single ultra high refractive index (UHR) element, which both help to minimise distortions and spherical aberrations throughout the zoom range in order to maintain edge-to-edge sharpness and illumination. In addition, 3 x extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing in order to produce a high degree of clarity and colour accuracy.
When it comes to Autofocus, this zoom lens delivers again. Its Stepping AF motor delivers quick and quiet focusing performance that benefits both photo and video applications. The lens can achieve maximum magnification of 0.43x and a minimum focusing distance of 5.9" benefits working with close-up subjects. While the AF/MF switch allows for quick changing between focusing modes.
Working in the elements is easy thanks to the lens' splash, dust, and freeze-proof design rated to -10 C. In addition, a Fluorine Coating has been applied to the front element to prevent dirt and oils from sticking to lens. And last, but not least, a 9 blade aperture blade design allows photographers and video creators to get some exquisite bokeh in the out-of-focus regions of their images and footage.
