The Panasonic/Leica 42.5mm f/1.2 OIS is a fast-aperture, short tele/portrait lens for Micro 4/3 mount cameras and camcorders. Key features include:
Fast f/1.2 Aperture. The fast aperture enables a high degree of subject/background isolation. Its light-gathering ability also makes it a great choice for low-light use.
Portrait Focal Length. With its 85mm equivalent focal length, the Panasonic/Leica 42.5mm f/1.2 is perfect for portraiture. Its stepping autofocus motor provides the fast, accurate performance needed for portrait and wedding photography.
POWER OIS. The in-lens stabilizer helps to combat camera shake, allowing you to shoot at slower shutter speeds and help keep ISO down. It has a physical on/off switch on the lens barrel for quick activation.
Premium Optics. The Leica-designed optical formula features two aspherical elements to minimize distortion and spherical aberrations, one extra-low dispersion element for maximizing contrast and sharpness, and one Ultra High Refractive Index element to help provide maximum corner sharpness.
High-Quality Build. The all-metal design provides a solid feel from the external manual aperture ring down to its metal lens mount.
