Product details

Compact, easy-to-carry design. The smallest and lightest lens in the world. The compact construction fits perfectly with the Lumix S9. Ideal for videography and photography. High-resolution images with beautiful bokeh. The design complements the Lumix S9, and the total weight is only 641 g, making it a perfect daily companion. The 18 mm ultra-wide-angle lens allows for more dynamic and emotional image composition. Ideal for everything from capturing landscapes while traveling to everyday snapshots.

Optimized zoom construction and lens arrangement enable an ultra-wide 18 mm and ultra-slim design. Panasonic's unique focus and lens technologies provide excellent close-up capabilities despite the compact and lightweight design. The application of a seal on every part ensures dust and splash resistance. The hybrid zoom, a combination of optical zoom and crop zoom, extends the telephoto range with a simple twist of the zoom ring.
