Panasonic Lumix DMC-G81 + 12-60mm + Leica 50-200mm f2.8-4.0 DG OIS

Panasomic 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 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 Leica 50-200mm f2.8-4.0 DG ASPH. OIS

Be flexible for a variety of situations with this compact Zoom lens from Panasonic. The Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 50-200 mm impresses with its particularly high speed and wide focal length range of 100 to 400 mm (KB). You can bring distant objects up close and take beautiful portraits. The 0.25x magnification also allows you to create outstanding macro shots of plants, for example.

The lens is protected against splashing water, dust and cold and offers high reliability even in the most adverse weather conditions, so you can master any challenge. The lens has been intricately designed to provide brilliant sharpness across the entire imaging area. Lines are reproduced accurately and distortion is avoided. This gives your shots a natural expression even in difficult lighting conditions.

The built-in image stabilizer effectively compensates for camera shake, so you can capture lifelike subjects in sharp focus without the need for a tripod. The lens is optimized for video recording, so you can easily change the aperture setting without sudden exposure changes, enable silent Zoom and focusing, and achieve optimal audio recording.
