Panasonic Lumix DMC-G81 + Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f2.8 OIS

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G81

The LUMIX DMC-G81 impresses with a variety of advanced technologies and practical features in a robust and compact body.

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 housing with a magnesium alloy front frame and numerous direct-access controls is comfortable to use and splash- & 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 Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f2.8 OIS.

This particularly compact and fast super-telephoto lens with a fixed focal length is ideal for wildlife and sports photography. Its dust and splash-proof design as well as the integrated image stabilizer make it a perfect companion for outdoor photography.

Awarded the LEICA name, this exceptional telephoto lens guarantees the high optical and mechanical quality of a top-of-the-line lens.

Despite its long focal length of 400mm (KB), the LEICA DG ELMARIT allows for a very compact design of only about 17cm, while at the same time minimizing camera shake, distortion and chromatic aberration.

An included 1.4x converter expands the application possibilities enormously and brings the focal length to 560mm (KB) at a speed of f4.0.
