Product Overview

LUMIX S 85mm F1.8 is Panasonic's affordable portrait prime lens. The first of four f/1.8 lenses to be released, Panasonic hopes to lure over consumers who appreciate the common dimensions, filter size, controls, and practicality of the series.
The LUMIX S 85mm F1.8 uses 9 elements in 8 groups. Among them, Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements suppress chromatic aberration.
The lens is also designed to produce smooth defocus gradation, which is desirable particularly for portrait applications.
