Panasonic DC-S5 II + S 20-60mm + Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 DG DN OS (S)

Panasonic DC-S5 II body

With its outstanding photo and video performance and an amazingly compact and robust body, the LUMIX DC-S5M2 meets the high demands of creative photo and video enthusiasts while offering exceptional value for money.

The S5M2 is based on a newly developed full-frame CMOS sensor with 24 megapixels and an equally new image processor, which was developed as part of the L² technology partnership between LEICA and LUMIX. For the first time, the sensor in the LUMIX system supports phase detection in addition to contrast-based autofocus and combines both focusing methods into a new hybrid phase detection AF. In addition, the new processor offers outstanding image quality and video performance with high bit rate or 6K resolution.

Panasonic LUMIX S 20-60mm F3.5-5.6

The LUMIX S 20-60mm F3.5-5.6 is a robust, lightweight standard Zoom lens with a focal length of 20mm ultra-wide angle to 60mm for versatile use from dynamic landscape shots to portraits. The wide angle of view also facilitates indoor shooting and the impressive close-up limit of 0.15 m (maximum magnification 0.43x) extends its use in product photography. The LUMIX S Zoom also ensures high-quality video recording by minimizing focus breathing as much as possible.

Thanks to its compact design and low weight of around 350 g, it does not compromise the photographer's mobility. It is characterized by a dust- and splash-resistant design* and can be used in the most adverse conditions down to -10°C. In addition, a fluorine coating on the front element repels water and oil. The filter diameter is 67 mm and the lens has nine blades for a virtually circular aperture.

The lens consists of 11 elements in 9 groups and uses 2 aspherical lenses and 3 ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lenses to suppress both axial chromatic aberration and chromatic magnification difference. Astigmatism can also be corrected with these aspherical lenses, resulting in high resolution performance. In addition, the UHR (Ultra-High Refractive Index) lens enables uniform image quality from the center to the edges of the image and ensures a compact design.

Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 DG DN OS (S) L-Mount

The SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS Sports redefines the standard for telephoto Zoom lenses for full-frame mirrorless cameras. With its high speed, it allows photographers to capture brilliant images even in difficult lighting conditions, delivering a gorgeous bokeh that enhances any subject.

Thanks to its advanced optical design, the lens can produce expressive images, making it the ideal tool for demanding photographers. Its versatility is further enhanced by the high-speed autofocus HLA (High-Response Linear Actuator), which enables fast and precise focusing.

Another highlight of this lens is the optical stabilizer, which is equipped with the latest "OS2" algorithm. This ensures that images remain sharp and blur-free even when shooting hand-held. The robust construction and outstanding weather resistance of the SIGMA Sports product line guarantee that this lens works reliably even under extreme conditions.

Highest optical performance

6 FLD and 2 SLD elements are used in the new 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS Sports. Together with the 3 aspherical lens elements, this optical design ensures uncompromisingly high imaging performance at all focal lengths and distance settings. Thanks to the integrated floating focus technology, this imaging performance is also achieved at close range

. The craftsmanship of the employees and the high manufacturing quality of the SIGMA production facility in Aizu (Japan) provide the basis for ensuring that the performance of the lens does not diminish even with intensive use.

First-class manufacturing quality

Highest manufacturing quality has top priority at SIGMA. As a lens in the Sports line, the SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS Sports not only offers high weather resistance for shooting in adverse conditions. The use of state-of-the-art materials and an optimized optical and mechanical design ensure high durability with maximum mobility.

The modern optical and mechanical design results in a significantly smaller and lighter body of the SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS Sports compared to the SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG OS HSM Sports. This reflects the trend towards compact and mobile equipment. At the same time, the usual high build quality is not compromised. Thanks to the use of different materials such as magnesium, CFRP_1 or TSC_2, a high level of robustness is guaranteed. This also applies to the operating elements such as switches and rings. Here, attention was also paid to excellent haptics and operability.

*1 CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic), a light but stable material that is used for the interior and exterior of aircraft, among other things.

*2 TSC (Thermally Stable Composite) is a type of polycarbonate with a thermal expansion rate similar to that of aluminum. It has a high similarity to metal parts, which contributes to high-quality product manufacturing.

High-quality coating

An ideal lens directs the incident light through all lenses to the sensor.

If, on the other hand, some of the light is reflected by individual lenses, not only is the light yield reduced; the reflections within the lens create ghost images and flare spots or reduce the contrast. Such effects would be particularly noticeable in backlit shots.

To prevent this, our 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS Sports uses a Super Multi-Layer Coating (SML), which reduces stray light and ghost images. The result is clear, sharp and high-contrast images without distracting lens flares.

Dust and splash-proof

Thanks to its dust and splash-proof construction, the lens is suitable for a wide range of applications and environments

*The housing is dust and splash-proof, but not waterproof. Make sure that the lens does not come into contact with large amounts of water. Water inside the lens can cause major damage and even irreparable damage to the lens.
