LEICA DG lens – top-level optics
Choose a LEICA DG lens for top-notch optical quality and performance. These lenses naturally meet the exacting quality standards of Leica Camera AG.

Thanks to the advanced design of these lenses, you can enjoy excellent sharpness that extends all the way to the edges of your photos. At the same time, all types of distortion are prevented, resulting in sharp and precise images. This gives you the ideal tool for taking professional-level photos.

Nano coating – clarity from all angles
Put an end to ghosting and lens flare. The system's lenses use a nano-coating. Panasonic originally developed this special, ultra-thin coating to reduce distracting reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear images, even when you're shooting a light source in the dark.

Video support – perfect video recording
With video support, users have everything they need to record on their LUMIX camera. Not only does it make smooth aperture adjustments so there are no sudden changes in exposure, it is also quiet, allowing for better recording of the sound of the shot. In addition, this lens's great AF performance records excellent 4K video footage where precise focus is essential.

Splash/dust/freeze proof – more options for creativity
Venture out in almost any weather or shooting conditions. This lens is built with a splash/dust/freeze* seal, making it durable enough to withstand the rigors of outdoor use. It protects the lens system inside from sand, rain, and more, making it perfect for shooting in harsh conditions. Now there's nothing stopping you from capturing the creative nature or landscape shots you want.
