Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 9mm / F1.7 ASPH. *Micro Four Thirds Lens H-X09

With an ultra-wide-angle focal length of 18mm the dynamic perspective allows you to express photos and videos with a sense of realism and it demonstrates excellent depiction performance from the center of the screen to the periphery. The lens construction uses 12 elements in 9 groups and uses special lenses such as aspherical lenses that suppress spherical aberration and distortion achieving high resolution performance from the center to the periphery. The large aperture and aperture value of F1.7 allows for low-light photography such as night scenes and dark interiors.

LUMIX's first ultra-wide-angle half-macro photography that opens up new expressions Despite its large aperture and ultra-wide angle the shortest shooting distance is 0.095m and the maximum magnification is 0.25x (35mm equivalent: 0.5x) ) half-macro photography has been realized. This makes it possible to create bokeh effects that are difficult to obtain with ultra-wide-angle lenses.By getting closer to the subject you can take pictures with a greatly blurred background and by narrowing down the aperture you can take pictures that take advantage of the details of both the subject and the background. In addition to the dynamic expressions unique to ultra-wide angles it also delivers impressive unprecedented close-up expressions of the subject.

Advanced video performance for high-quality video expression By adopting inner focus high-speed and high-precision AF focusing is achieved.
