A big lens for the Micro Four Thirds system the Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f/2.8 POWER O.I.S. Lens from Panasonic is a 400mm-equivalent super telephoto prime developed in partnership with Leica that promises sharp imagery and excellent handling. With a fast f/2.8 maximum aperture users can work in low-light conditions and create images with a shallow depth of field. Ensuring optimal image quality the design incorporates two Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion (UED) elements that combat aberrations while a Nano Surface Coating is applied to minimize flare. Optimized for the capture of distant and fast-moving subject matter this lens is equipped with a quiet triple linear motor autofocus system that has a 240 fps sensor drive for exceptionally fast performance in both stills and video. Also a POWER Optical Image Stabilizer will compensate for camera shake and works with Panasonic s Dual I.S. and Dual I.S. 2.0 in-camera stabilization functions. Along with this quick access lens controls including a focus limiter focus button and focus memory switch are available for tactile control over numerous settings. Further benefitting the professional nature of this optic is a splash dust and freezeproof design for use in less-than-ideal weather conditions. It is compatible with teleconverters for added reach and the DMW-TC14 1.4x Teleconverter is included for creating a 560mm-equivalent lens at the cost of one stop of light. With a 400mm equivalent focal length on Micro Four Thirds cameras this telephoto prime is well suited to working with distant subject matter. A fast f/2.8 maximum aperture excels when working in difficult lighting conditions and provides extensive control over depth of field. Two ultra extra-low dispersion elements minimize various aberrations in order to produce a high degree of clarity sharpness and color accuracy. Nano Surface Coating has been applied to individual elements to reduce flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color neutrality A triple linear motor autofocus system delivers smooth near-silent performance that is especially beneficial to video applications when working in noise-sensitive areas. It is also able to drive the motor at up to 240 fps for high-speed applications and is silent for use in video. POWER Optical Image Stabilizer minimizes the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting and also supports the Dual I.S. and Dual I.S. 2.0 functions for increased stabilization performance. Physical controls located on the lens barrel provide quick access to many commonly adjusted settings. This includes a focus control limiter for changing from full-range focusing or 9.8 to infinity for faster operation in some circumstances. Also there is a focus button and a focus memory switch that can be set up to store focus position or to recall a specific camera function. In addition to these more unique controls there is an AF/MF switch and a POWER O.I.S. on/off switch. Splash dust and freezeproof design benefits working in inclement weather conditions down to -14°F. A quick-shift two-part rotating tripod collar permits quick switching between horizontal and vertical shooting orientations and keeps the lens controls in the same place once rotated for more intuitive handling. The lens comes supplied with a 1.4x teleconverter providing users with a 560mm-equivalent focal length at a cost of 1 stop of light. For even more reach an optional 2x teleconverter is available for an 800mm-equivalent focal length.
