Composed of twelve lens elements in eleven groups, this lens features three aspherical elements, three extra-low dispersion elements, and one ultra extra-low dispersion element to reduce chromatic aberration and color fringing for improved clarity and color accuracy. The lens offers high resolution sharpness and performance to support 4K video as well, and a linear autofocus motor suppresses focus breathing and delivers smooth, precise, and near silent focusing performance.

Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture offers control over depth of field and suits working in low-light conditions.
Benefitting professional video applications, linear focus ring control for mechanical-based follow focus systems moves the focus at a constant speed in accordance with the rotating angle of the focus ring.

Smooth exposure changes by micro-step aperture control for video applications.
High resolution sharpness and performance to support 4K video.
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.

Panasonic Lumix S 24mm f/1.8 Reviews

Amazing Wide Angle

Amazing lens. Sharp across the entire frame, very fast, and fits in perfectly with the rest of the Panasonic f1.8 set. They have truly done something special with this lens series and can't wait to try it on their new S5 II camera (and any future S series iterations).

Love this lens.

I've preordered the 35mm to complete my S prime assortment (24, 35, 50, and 85mm). These lenses are light, fast, and structurally sound. No complaints, although the 24mm has been the most expensive of the 4 lenses.

Another 24mm lens ? Buy it.....

I was not excited to spend money on another 24mm lens since I have that covered 3 times already with Lumix brand zoom lenses. I ended up testing now all 4 lenses at 24mm along with the Leica f1.7 Summilux 28mm to assess the value of this purchase. Regardless of f stop, this lens was sharper than any of Panasonic zooms with the 24-70mm f2.8 closest in quality. The Leica, as expected was a hair sharper. Image rendering of the new 24mm was very close to the Leica overall feel with a hair post tweek. Out of focus areas were superior to zooms but not exactly Leica. 3 dimensional depth was much better than the zooms but again not quite Leica. Now the real area I appreciated was the mid highlight rendering which really sparkled compared to the Zooms and closely matched Leica. Overall the lens handles great and does not disappoint in any area especially for the money. Having a lens that functions below freezing was one of my prime reasons for going with Lumix system. I am very happy with results and can easily justify the expense since this lens shoots so well at minimum focus. No real aberrations , a little fringing that immediate clears in post. The wide open sharpness and contrast is simply icing of the cake.

Such a sweet lens

There is no better affordable lens set out there right now better than Panasonic's f1.8 prime lens set. Love the wide angle and fast aperture of this 24mm.

Great lens.

I have this lens on my s5. I'm no pixel peeper, but I think it would be hard to find something wrong with this lens. I like the weight, length, and feel and that it has the same size filter thread as the 50 and 85mm primes. Can't wait for the 35mm to be available. There is nothing wrong with these prime lenses that I can detect. Fault them if you must for not having OIS, but my Lumix cameras all have great IBIS.
