Nano Surface Coating – clarity from all angles

Put an end to unwanted ghosting and flaring – the Nano Surface Coating has been applied to lenses within the system. This special, ultra-thin coating was developed originally by Panasonic to reduce bothersome reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear pictures even if you’re photographing a light source in the dark.

POWER O.I.S – Ultra-Sharp Photos

Capture scenes carefree or at the spur of the moment. The optical image stabilisation (O.I.S) technology built directly into the lens ensures your photos will look great, with sharpe blue-free contours across the entire picture.

Taking highly popular MEGA O.I.S further, this advanced technology immediately compensates even large camera shake and vibrations that may occur in photography. So you can capture true-to-life scenes without the need for a tripod. In the end, you’ll enjoy wonderfully crips images.

Lens construction

14 elements in 12 groups
- 4 aspherical lenses
- 2 Extra-Low Dispersion lenses

Aspherical (ASPH) lenses reduce size and weight, effectively preventing spherical and distortion aberration.

Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) lenses correct chromatic aberration rendering sharp, high-contract images with clear colours from corner to corner.
