Lens for photos and videos
The Panasonic S-E2460E lens impresses at first glance with its excellent f/2.8 aperture throughout the zoom range. This means not only better low-light results, but also more creative control over depth of field. This allows you to achieveprofessional-looking images with subtle background blur (bokeh)and sharp details in the foreground. Whether you're shooting video or taking portraits, the f/2.8 aperture puts an excellent tool in your hands. The wide-angle 24mm is appreciated for landscape, architecture or video shots, while the 60mm provides a natural look for portraits and close-ups. The lens captures scenes with authentic depth and vivid colours, and can seamlessly go from wide shot to tight close-up without the need to change glass.

Focusing distance of only 19 cm
The lens also features an extremely short minimum focusing distance of just 19cm, making it easy to get close to your subject and capture it with a maximum magnification of 0.3×. You'll especially appreciate this when shooting close-ups, flowers, small objects or arranged tabletop scenes. The result is impressive images with a strong bokeh effect that highlights the main subject and adds depth to the photo. At the same time, you can incorporate multiple backgrounds to create a dynamic composition with a natural perspective.

Superior optical quality of the Panasonic Lumix S 24-60 mm F2.8
Its precision design includes 14 optical elements arranged in 12 groups, with special elements, three aspherical (ASPH) lenses, one ultra-low dispersion (UED) lens and two extra-low dispersion (ED) lenses playing an important role. The combination of optical elements contributes tohigh sharpness, contrast and accurate colour rendering across the entire image field. The result is a clear, faithfully rendered image without distracting optical defects.

MTF S 24-60 F2.8 curve
Despite its compact and lightweight design, the Panasonic zoom lens offers image quality to meet the demands of professionals. Details remain perfectly rendered from the centre to the edges of the frame at all focal lengths. Such optical performance is confirmed by MTF charts that demonstrate consistent sharpness and superior contrast in all parts of the image.

Suitable for low light conditions
With a length of approximately 99.9mm and a weight of around 544g, the Lumix lens fits easily into a bag and is easy to carry around. And with a constant F2.8 aperture throughout the zoom range, it offers impressive low-light capabilities and lets you play with depth of field.

With intuitive control ring
Within the LUMIX S series, the lens offers the ability to switch functions directly via the control ring. The manual focus ring can thus also serve as a customizable control, for example for adjusting aperture or exposure compensation. In addition, you can choose the direction of rotation according to your habits. The lens also includes a separate focus button that provides quick access to features such as hybrid zoom, which combines optical zoom with digital cropping to expand the shooting possibilities without changing the focal length.

Linear and non-linear control
Manual focus can now be fine-tuned even when zooming. There are two modes of operation with the sharpening ring,linear and non-linear. Non-linear mode adjusts the focus speed according to the rotation speed. In linear mode, on the other hand, the focusing response is consistent and predictable, similar to traditional mechanical lenses.




Silent focusing
A new linear two-phase motor together with an optical encoder ensures high-speed and precise autofocusing. The silent drive minimizes focusing noise during video shooting. Phase detection focusing works reliably even when zooming.
Durable body
The Panasonic Lumix S 24-60mm F2.8 lens is dust and splash proof and can operate in temperatures as low as -10°C. The fluorine coating on the front lens prevents the build-up of oily dirt, making maintenance much easier and ensuring a clear image without unwanted smudges or smudges.
He gets along with gimables
The advanced optical design and optimized internal tube structure effectively suppress the undesirable "breathing" effect during focusing. High-contrast scenes get smooth transitions in luminosity settings without sudden exposure changes thanks to micro-step aperture control. The lens' stable centre of gravity when zooming makes it ideal for use with gimbals, where you'll appreciate smooth and balanced operation without unwanted movement.
