Panasonic Launches Two New L-Mount Interchangeable Lenses
for the LUMIX S Series Full-frame Digital Single Lens Mirrorless Camera
LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S. (S-E70200)
LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4 (S-R1635)
Panasonic is proud to introduce two new interchangeable lenses based on the L-Mount system for
the LUMIX S Series Full-frame Digital Single Lens Mirrorless Camera. Specially focusing on professional
use, the LUMIX S Series pursues uncompromising photographic expression with its high-quality cameras
and lenses.
The LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S. (S-E70200) is a large-aperture telephoto zoom lens that
boasts high descriptive performance across the entire zoom range. The LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4
(S-R1635) is a versatile wide zoom lens that provides high resolution images and a beautiful bokeh
despite its compact, light-weight profile. The optical performance of these LUMIX S PRO lenses is
outstandingly high to clear stringent LEICA standards.
LUMIX S PRO/S Lens Lineup as of November 2019
LUMIX S PRO 50mm F1.4 (S-X50)
[NEW] LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4 (S-R1635)
LUMIX S PRO 24-70mm F2.8 (S-E2470)
LUMIX S 24-105mm F4 MACRO O.I.S. (S-R24105)
[NEW] LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S. (S-E70200)
LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F4 O.I.S. (S-R70200)
Panasonic is committed to designing and developing 11 or more lenses with the emphasis on
“LUMIX S PRO” lenses by March 2021 and further expanding the S Series lens lineup. Currently a total of
more than 46 interchangeable L-Mount lenses are available or will be available from Panasonic, Leica
Camera AG and Sigma. The L-Mount thereby opens up an almost limitless spectrum of new creative
possibilities.
LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S. (S-E70200)
The LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S. (S-E70200) is a large-aperture telephoto zoom lens that
boasts high descriptive performance across the entire zoom range. It is designed and developed for
professional field shooting.
Comprising 22 elements in 17 groups, the use of 2 UED (Ultra Extra-low Dispersion) lenses, 3 ED
(Extra-low Dispersion) lenses and optimum alignment effectively suppresses both axial chromatic
aberration and chromatic aberration of magnification. Astigmatism is also corrected with an aspherical

lens, achieving high resolving performance. Adoption of a double focus system suppresses fluctuation of
aberration even at close distances, which results in high descriptive performance from the center to the
corners over the entire zoom range despite its large aperture.
Covering from 70mm to 200mm by itself, the use of a Teleconverter allows maximum 280mm (1.4x,
with DMW-STC14) and 400mm (2x, with DMW-STC20) super telephoto shooting

, with maximum 480
fps focus control for high-speed, high-precision auto focus. The O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) in the
lens complies with the camera’s Body I.S. and the 5-Axis Dual I.S. 2*2 makes it possible to use a 7-stop
slower shutter speed*3. Adoption of a focus clutch mechanism enables instant AF/MF switching and
accurate manual focusing.
The constant F2.8 large aperture provides smooth defocus gradation from the focus peak to the
neighboring area of the image to achieve a beautiful bokeh effect as well as a rich perspective. The
LUMIX S PRO 70-200mm F2.8 O.I.S. also excels in video recording performance with a mechanism that
suppresses focus breathing, which was a fatal problem in all interchangeable lenses designed for still
image photography.
The rugged dust/splash-resistant*

design withstands use under harsh conditions even at 10
degrees below zero for high mobility. The filter size is 82 mm, with an 11-blade circular aperture
diaphragm.
LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4 (S-R1635)
The LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4 (S-R1635) is a versatile wide zoom lens that provides high
resolution images despite its compact, lightweight profile. It boasts high descriptive performance in both
photo shooting and video recording.
Comprising 12 elements in 9 groups, the use of 3 aspherical lenses, an ED (Extra-low Dispersion)
lens and a UHR (Ultra-High Refractive Index) lens and the optimum alignment achieves high MTF
performance despite its compact size and light weight. It boasts stunningly high resolution toward the
corners even at wide open as well as a beautiful bokeh, suppressing double line bokeh and vignetting.
For the AF actuator, a double-magnet linear motor is integrated. It features high power despite its
small size, achieving a maximum 480 fps high-speed sensor drive. This realizes fast, high-precision AF to
ensure that photo opportunities are never missed. Adoption of a focus clutch mechanism enables instant
AF/MF switching and accurate manual focusing. The LUMIX S PRO 16-35mm F4 also excels in video
recording performance with a mechanism that suppresses focus breathing, which was a fatal problem in
all interchangeable lenses designed for still image photography.
