Learn about the PANASONIC LUMIX G Vario 14-140mm f/3.5-5.6 Power O.I.S, MICRO 4/3 LENS - BLACK

The Micro Four Thirds lens mount is like a window into the world—and with compatible lenses like the PANASONIC LUMIX G VARIO 14-140mm f/3.5-5.6 POWER O.I.S. MICRO 4/3 - BLACK, it’s no wonder. This lens is smooth and sophisticated, handling just about any kind of shot you want to throw at it thanks to a wide angle-to-telephoto zoom range that’s equivalent to 28-280mm in 35mm format. But there’s more to the story of lenses that we like to tell here at Adorama—certainly more than just the flexible angles from which you can view the world. There’s an underlying quality of design to this lens that helps reduce chromatic aberrations and increase the consistency of each photograph. That’s no mistake. Every detail, from the two ED glass elements to the Power Optical Image Stabilizer (O.I.S.), goes into making this a lens that can take your eyes around the world and back without bungling any one of a wide range of photo types. Sound too good to be true? Here’s how the Panasonic 14-140 micro four-thirds lens pulls it off:

Product Highlights

• We can’t go very far without mentioning the Power Optical Image Stabilizer (Panasonic OIS). Image stabilization is key when you’re talking about a lens with this kind of flexibility between shots. If you’re going to take consistent photographs, you’re going to need stabilization that backs it up. Well, the OIS here does that and more, aiding you in each shot’s consistency while offering a level of clarity and precision that’s tough to equal throughout the world of premier lenses.
• Smooth, silent focusing is essential to anyone who takes his lenses seriously—and the Panasonic 14-140 delivers. Of course, many lenses have their own ways of accomplishing this—for this Panasonic, an internal focusing system lets you focus without having to worry about the lens size itself, and a stepping motor offers smooth and silent focusing in both photo and video modes. That means you can freely move between capturing stills as well as live footage without having to worry about how your next shot will focus.
• High-speed shooting takes advantage of all this wonderful autofocusing, because the Panasonic Lumix 14-140mm lens supports shooting up to 240 fps (with compatible cameras). Of course, a consistent, smooth autofocus is needed to maintain image integrity at frame rates of this speed, and you already know that this lens delivers. Feel free to take high-quality footage at absurdly high frame rates without worrying whether your shot will appear sluggish or out of focus.
• Quality construction and design brings it all together, thanks to 14 elements in 12 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses and 2 ED lenses. If you wonder how your Panasonic 14-140 achieves such stunning, high-contrast photos with minimal chromatic aberrations, it’s because of this quality design, inside and outside the device.
• Lightweight and easy to carry, coming it at 9.35 ounces minus the lens cap and lens rear cap, the Panasonic 14-140 is an easy addition to your toolbox of lenses. Because it’s interchangeable with the Micro Four Thirds lens mount, you can easily create a veritable portable studio for yourself, featuring lenses like this Panasonic Lumix zoom lens. You won’t add a lot of weight or bulk to your carrying cases and you’ll be free to move around a professional gig with ease.

Whether you’re looking to add to your Micro Four Thirds lens series or making your first investment, there are few lenses at Adorama that more warrant your consideration than the PANASONIC Lumix G Vario 14-140mm f/3.5-5.6 POWER O.I.S. MICRO 4/3 - BLACK.
