Discover the remarkable Leica DG Nocticron 42.5mm f/1.2 ASPH. POWER O.I.S. lens by Panasonic, designed specifically for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. With its fast and advanced optical design, this prime lens offers an equivalent focal length of 85mm, making it ideal for capturing stunning portraits. The impressive f/1.2 maximum aperture allows for precise control over depth of field, enabling you to create beautiful images with selective focus techniques, even in challenging lighting conditions. The lens incorporates two aspherical elements, one Ultra-High Refractive Index (UHR) element, and one extra-low dispersion element, effectively reducing both spherical and chromatic aberrations, resulting in exceptional sharpness, clarity, and accurate rendering. Additionally, the Nano Surface Coating minimizes lens flare and ghosting, enhancing contrast and color fidelity.
In addition to its exceptional optical performance, this lens is equipped with a POWER Optical Image Stabilizer (O.I.S.), effectively minimizing the impact of camera shake for sharper handheld shots. The stepping autofocus (AF) motor and internal focusing design deliver fast, smooth, and virtually silent autofocus performance, making it well-suited for both photography and videography.
