The VARIO PZ 45-175mm also achieves high performance for resolution and contrast at the entire zoom range of 45-175mm (35mm camera equivalent: 90-350mm) in a compact size. Although the lens covers a long zoom range from standard to telephoto, it is designed with two aspherical lenses for outstanding compactness at approximately 90.0 mm in length and approximately 210g in weight.
The lens system features the inclusion of two ED lenses, which suppress chromatic aberration, contributing to high descriptive performance at the entire zoom range.Seven aperture blades make up the circular aperture diaphragm and produce an attractive smoothness in out-of-focus areas even when shooting at a large aperture.
When the lens is mounted on LUMIX G Micro System cameras, users can take advantage of the Contrast AF system. Adopting an inner focus system driven by a stepping motor, the superior optical design of the lens offers smooth operation to support Light Speed AF of approximately 0.15 second . By speeding up the aperture control, shutter time lag is also shortened by approximately 20% compared with the LUMIX G VARIO 45-200mm /F4.0-5.6/MEGA O.I.S. Lens
