◆The joy of changing, expanding expression. While zoom lenses allow you to adjust the angle of view according to the situation, prime lenses allow the photographer to create the composition by moving themselves. You can enjoy the joy of expression more deeply. This lens features a natural 40mm focal length, a bright F2 aperture, and beautiful bokeh, allowing you to impressively capture scenes before your eyes. Moreover, it's a small and lightweight lens that can be easily carried in a bag while attached to your camera, so you can enjoy photographic expression more freely, from street snaps to landscapes that move you while traveling.
◆Impressively depicting with a natural field of view, 40mm F2 The 40mm focal length is close to human vision, making it suitable for capturing the impression you see with a natural field of view. In addition, the bright F2 aperture allows you to highlight the subject with soft background bokeh, and you can shoot with a fast shutter speed without increasing the ISO sensitivity even in twilight or dimly lit indoors. It is useful in a variety of shooting scenes, such as snapshots and landscapes that make use of natural perspective, and portraits with natural expressions. It captures a sense of atmosphere within the frame, turning even ordinary scenes into special works of art.
◆Beautiful bokeh and rich expressiveness You can enjoy the beautiful bokeh and rich expressiveness that are unique to prime lenses. This single lens opens up a wide range of expressive possibilities, from impressive portraits and snapshots with softly blurred backgrounds to nightscapes that capture the shimmering glow of streetlights with rich atmosphere. Furthermore, the minimum focusing distance is 30cm. It is suitable for a wide range of scenes, from table photography of small objects and food to shooting seasonal flowers.
◆Compact and Lightweight Design With a total length of approximately 40.9mm and a weight of approximately 144g, this compact and lightweight lens is sized to match the Panasonic full-frame mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera DC-S9, making it easy to carry around in a bag while attached. The size is the same as the retracted zoom lens S-R1840, and the filter diameter is also standardized at Φ62mm. Use a zoom lens when you want to flexibly adjust the angle of view, and a prime lens when you want to be more particular about expression. This realizes a lightweight full-frame system that increases the freedom of shooting.
◆Portable, dustproof and splashproof design*
Low-temperature resistant design Because it's a lens you want to carry around easily, it has a dustproof and splashproof design* that can handle unpredictable environments. Capture sudden photo opportunities regardless of the weather, and protect your precious lens from water droplets and dust. The front element of the lens is coated with fluorine, so even if dirt adheres to the lens surface, it can be easily removed. Furthermore, with a low-temperature resistant design down to -10℃, you can use it with peace of mind when going out or traveling in cold seasons. *When mounted on a Panasonic dustproof and splashproof camera body. Although it has a structure that takes dustproof and splashproof considerations into account, it does not completely prevent the intrusion of dust or water droplets.
◆High-speed, high-precision, and quiet focusing An inner focus system using a stepping motor is adopted. With AF control at up to 240 times per second in conjunction with the camera body, high-speed, high-precision, and quiet focusing is possible in a variety of scenes where high AF performance is required for both still images and videos, such as quickly focusing or smoothly tracking moving subjects.
◆Video performance ideal for video production The optical design that supports high-definition video shooting and the optimization of the internal structure of the lens barrel suppress breathing (a phenomenon in which the angle of view changes as the focus position moves during focusing, such as during video shooting). In addition, in scenes with large changes in brightness, the aperture microstep control smoothly controls the change in F value, suppressing sudden changes in exposure. This also supports stable exposure control when panning during video shooting. [Accessories] ・Front cap ・Rear cap
