How to Use The Panasonic LUMIX S 100mm f2.8 Macro Lens

Achieve Stunning Resolution

The Panasonic LUMIX S 100mm f2.8 Macro Lens offers outstanding resolution thanks to its intricate optical design featuring 13 elements arranged into 11 groups. This optical arrangement includes three aspherical lenses, two UED lenses and one ED lens designed to reduce aberrations and provide detail-rich clarity with edge-to-edge sharpness. This Panasonic lens is just as dynamic for subject background separation and bokeh thanks to its f2.8 maximum aperture and 9-blade diaphragm with a new, thinner profile and smaller diameter. It renders beautifully defocused backgrounds and natural bokeh for striking portraits and greater low-light performance.

Shoot Mid-Telephoto to Macro

As a 100mm f2.8 prime capable of producing natural images without perspective, this lens provides various shooting options, covering mid-telephoto to macro ranges. It is an excellent option for advertising and filmmaking, capturing close-ups of key items or emphasising a subject with high-resolution details. As a result, the Panasonic LUMIX S 100mm f2.8 Macro Lens lends itself nicely to photographing insects and flowers in nature, the texture of food or small objects, mid-telephoto portraits and landscapes, and even moving hands or water.

Take Advantage of The High-Performance Focus Drive

Realising three times the output of conventional linear motors whilst maintaining the same speed and precision, Panaonic’s proprietary Dual Phase Linear Motor provides a compact system and high-performance focus drive. This new actuator drives without breaking, switching the energy of the two-phase coil to buck the trend of macro lenses taking too long to focus. The result is a powerful system that drives large-mass lenses at high speed, allowing macro photographers to focus faster in critical moments.

Get Ready for An Adventure

Panasonic has given the LUMIX S 100mm f2.8 Macro Lens a durable design by sealing each part of the lens. As a result, this lens benefits from dust and splash-resistant properties that will give you peace of mind when shooting in inclement conditions. And, for the expert explorers, the LUMIX S 100mm f2.8 Macro Lens is also freeze-proof, maintaining a consistent performance in temperatures down to -10°C and taking the reliability of the S range to new heights (or lows).

Seamlessly Integrate with LUMIX Full-Frame Prime Lenses

Thanks to its unified size, filter thread, and operability, the Panasonic LUMIX S 100mm f2.8 Macro Lens seamlessly integrates into the renowned LUMIX S line of full-frame primes. The 100mm f2.8 lens joins the 18mm, 24mm, 35mm, 50mm, and 85mm f1.8 lenses to offer creators a highly efficient workflow. Whilst the lens size makes changing your optics simple and convenient, the unified performance across the range also helps streamline post-production. The result is a comprehensive lineup of lenses that cover the most popular focal lengths to provide users with the perfect companion for almost any shooting scenario.
