With the compact Panasonic DMC-G81 in a set with the 12-60mm + 45-200mm + 100-400mm lens, you'll take pictures with outstanding image quality. Its weatherproof housing makes it perfect for outdoor activities.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G81
With the latest cutting-edge technology such as sensor without low-pass filter, Dual I.S. image stabilizer, DFD contrast autofocus, high-resolution 4K photo/video as well as movable touchscreen LCD monitor and large OLED viewfinder, the G81 scores with many detail improvements.
The robust magnesium housing with its numerous direct-access controls is easy to operate and splash-proof and dust-proof.
In addition to 4K videos, the 4K photo function can also record motion sequences and action scenes at 30 fps and 8 MP resolution. With the Post Focus function, the optimally focused photo can be selected from a series of images with different focus. The Focus Stacking function allows to generate a partial or front-to-back sharp photo from multiple frames.
The 5-axis Dual I.S. image stabilizer works even more effectively thanks to a new motion sensor and improved computing algorithms. It can compensate for camera shake up to 5 EV steps.
The 16-megapixel Digital Live MOS sensor without low-pass filter, together with the new, specially tuned Venus Engine image processor, promises stunning image quality. With the mechanical shutter, an electromagnetic drive reduces vibration and noise. With silent electronic shutter, the fastest shutter speed is 1/16,000s.
Image control is via a large OLED viewfinder with 2.4 million pixels.
Panasonic Lumix G Vario 12-60mm / F3.5-5.6 Asph./Power O.I.S (H-FS12060E).
The LUMIX G VARIO 12-60mm consists of 11 lenses in 9 groups. Three aspherical elements and one ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lens allow for a compact design without compromising quality, while minimizing distortion and chromatic aberration.
With its focal length of 24-120mm (KB), the lens is equally suitable for portraits and landscape photography.
Typical of LUMIX, the Power O.I.S. image stabilizer ensures blur-free handheld or low-light shooting. It is also compatible with the GX8's body stabilizer. The dual stabilization (Dual IS) enables even more effective compensation of camera shake.
A fast signal transfer rate of up to 240B/s ensures the fastest response times, especially in combination with the Hybrid Contrast AF of the current LUMIX G cameras. Focusing is achieved via a precise and quiet internal focusing system, driven by a stepper motor.
The LUMIX G VARIO 12-60mm/3.5-5.6 is equipped with a solid metal bayonet. Multi-coating of the lens elements ensures high-contrast image reproduction and minimizes reflections or ghosting.
Dust and splash protection make it the ideal companion for the LUMIX GH4 or GX8, even in inhospitable conditions.
Panasonic LUMIX G VARIO 45-200 mm / F4.0-5.6 II / O.I.S. (H-FSA45200).
This tele-Zoomlens is easy to use in every way and should have a regular place in your kit. Use the 45mm setting for stunning close-ups. For an even more powerful Zoom, use the 200mm setting.
With this telephoto Zoom lens, you can easily customize your shots to suit your subject and creative ideas. The lens offers balanced correction of aberrations of various types and guarantees high image quality. Since it is dust and splash resistant, it is the perfect companion for your outdoor shooting.
Panasonic Leica 100-400mm 1:4-6.3 Power OIS.
The LEICA DG VARIO-ELMAR features 20 lenses in 13 groups, including one aspherical ED element, two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements and one UED (Ultra Extra-low Dispersion) element. Despite the extreme telephoto focal length of 800mm (KB equivalent), the optimized arrangement of the lenses enables a very compact design while minimizing distortion and chromatic aberration. The magnification of 0.5x (KB) also makes it well suited for macro photography.
The high imaging performance over the entire focal length of the lens, in combination with the POWER O.I.S. image stabilizer, enables maximum sharpness even in extreme telephoto shots taken handheld. A tripod is thus rarely needed. In addition, the LEICA DG VARIO-ELMAR is compatible with Panasonic's exclusive Dual Image Stabilization, which provides even more efficient stabilization by combining the optical stabilizer with the LUMIX GX8's body image stabilizer.
A major strength of the new super telephoto lens is its compact design: the lens measures less than 18 centimeters in length and weighs less than one kilogram. Dust and splash protection make it the ideal companion for the LUMIX GH4 or GX8, for example for outdoor sports or wildlife photography.
A locking ring on the lens prevents unwanted changes to the set focal length. A movable tripod adapter on the lens allows quick changes from horizontal to vertical shots. Together with the high-quality metal barrel, the robust metal bayonet guarantees a long service life. The signal transfer rate of up to 240B/s also supports the fast and precise hybrid contrast autofocus of current LUMIX G cameras.
