Bring distant subjects up close with this 300mm ultra-telephoto zoom lens (35mm equivalent: 600mm). It is ideal for capturing fast-paced action sports scenes or even shy animals that you normally cannot approach. Unlike conventional lenses, LUMIX G lenses like this one are compact, lightweight, and fit perfectly in your hand. You can now take professional shots of athletes or even capture individual water droplets falling to the ground. With its dust and splash-proof design, it is the perfect companion for your outdoor photography. Capture subjects effortlessly and spontaneously. The optical image stabilization (O.I.S.), a technology integrated directly into the lens, ensures stunning photos with sharp, shake-free contours across the entire image. The O.I.S. is continuously being developed and optimized. For this advanced technology, the popular MEGA O.I.S. function has been further refined. Even strong camera shakes and vibrations are compensated for during shooting as soon as they occur. This allows for capturing lifelike subjects without the need for a tripod. The extremely sharp images will impress you right from the start.
