As stated above, this optic is good for video, too, and it will provide superior image quality that handles 4K video recording with ease.

The lens features 11 elements in 9 groups. Three elements are aspherical, while one is an Extra Low Dispersion glass in order to reduce chromatic aberration. On the other hand, flare and ghosting are kept to the minimum by multi-coated elements.

A minimum focusing distance of 20 centimeters is listed on the optic’s specs list. As for the availability details, Panasonic will release the lens this Mary for a price of $499.99.
