Built for the L-Mount system, this lens packs serious performance into a lightweight frame, making it perfect for landscape, architectural, and everyday shooting. With a focal range of 18-40mm, you're covered for everything from expansive vistas to street scenes, all in one small package.

The lens construction features 8 elements in 7 groups, including 3 aspherical elements, 2 ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements, and a UHR (Ultra-High Refractive Index) element, designed to keep those pesky distortions and chromatic aberrations at bay. The results are clear, sharp images with excellent contrast, even in tricky lighting conditions.

Built tough, it's dust and splash resistant, so it won't let you down when the weather turns, and it's designed to operate between -10°C and 40°C. With a 62mm filter thread and a compact 67.9mm maximum diameter, this lens is the perfect travel companion.

Whether you're shooting epic landscapes or tight urban shots, the Lumix S 18-40mm f/4.5-6.3 is designed to keep up with your creative vision, all while staying light in your bag and easy on your back.
