Groothoekobjectief Panasonic LUMIX S 24 mm F1.8 MILC/SLR zwart

The Panasonic LUMIX S 24 mm F1.8 is a wide-angle lens engineered for MILC and SLR cameras with an L mount. Its optical design uses 12 elements in 11 groups to deliver sharp images across the frame while maintaining a compact form factor and a lightweight body of approximately 0.31 kg. The lens offers a fast maximum aperture of F1.8 for low-light shooting and controlled depth of field, a minimum aperture of F16 for extended depth of field, and a closest focusing distance of 0.24 m for near-subject work. Its 67 mm filter thread and a 7.36 cm diameter make it compatible with common accessories and filters.

Advantages

The lens provides a wide 24 mm perspective suitable for landscapes, architecture and environmental portraits, combined with a bright F1.8 aperture that aids in low-light conditions and subject separation. The compact construction and modest weight support handheld shooting and prolonged use without significant fatigue. The 12-element, 11-group optical structure is designed to control aberrations and maintain resolution across the image circle. A standard 67 mm filter size allows use of widely available filters.

Suitable for

• Landscape photography and cityscapes
• Architectural and interior shooting
• Environmental portraits and group shots
• Street and documentary photography
• Low-light scenes where a wide field of view is required

How to use

Attach the lens to any compatible L-mount MILC or SLR camera body until it locks securely. Use the camera’s aperture controls to select the desired aperture between F1.8 and F16 depending on depth-of-field requirements. For close subjects, set focus at or near the 0.24 m closest focusing distance and confirm sharpness through the viewfinder or live view. When shooting handheld in low light, prefer wider apertures and increase ISO as needed to maintain shutter speed. Screw on 67 mm filters or lens accessories as required for protection or creative effects.

Recommendations

For best results, use wide apertures to isolate subjects in low light and stop down to F5.6–F11 for maximum edge-to-edge sharpness in landscape and architectural work. Use a lens hood or polarising filter on the 67 mm thread to reduce flare and improve contrast. Respect the specified operating temperature range (10–40 °C) to ensure reliable performance.
