Panasonic Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f-2.8 + TC-14 Teleconverter

The latest addition to the Panasonic Lumix Micro Four Thirds range, is this Panasonic Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f-2.8 + TC-14 Teleconverter. Rugged and weather-sealed, this lens is a perfect pairing to the equally fresh Panasonic Lumix G9. A fast f2.8 aperture promotes excellent low-light shooting, as well as shallow depth of field. The long telephoto focal length which is equivalent to 400mm, can be extended to a whopping 560mm equivalent with the included 1.4x teleconverter, perfect for sports and wildlife shooting. Remarkably, all of this exceptional performance is achieved without betraying the compact form of the compact system range.

A big lens for the Micro Four Thirds system, the Panasonic Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f-2.8 + TC-14 Teleconverter is a 400mm-equivalent super telephoto prime, developed in partnership with Leica, that promises sharp imagery and excellent handling. With a fast f/2.8 maximum aperture users can work in low-light conditions and create images with a shallow depth of field. Ensuring optimal image quality, the design incorporates two Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion (UED) elements that combat aberrations while a Nano Surface Coating is applied to minimize flare.

The fast f2.8 aperture of this high-performance lens is beneficial to handheld shooters, so more often than not you can forget bringing your tripod on that long hike over the weekend. The aperture also works in unison with the long focal length to create exceptionally shallow depths of field, so your subjects will be tack sharp, standing out amongst a sea of blur. Power O.I.S is also a major feature of this lens, producing premium protection from camera shake. Taking this further, this stabiliser works in conjunction with certain Panasonic cameras to enable Dual IS and Dual IS 2, for even greater protection from shake.

This Panasonic Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f-2.8 + TC-14 Teleconverter is rugged, with dust, splash and freezeproof performance. Suitable for both video and stills, and for fast-moving subjects, this lens includes a triple linear motor autofocus system. The AF performance of this motor is at once fast, smooth and incredibly silent, so it will do the job without being noticed.

Joshua C. ★★★★★

Bolt the TC-14 on and you've got a 400mm equivalent that's still tack sharp — I shot a whole soccer match handheld and barely felt the weight. The f-2.8 aperture makes the background melt away in ways I didn't think M4/3 could pull off.

George N. ★★★★★

The dual-stabilization with my camera body makes handheld 400mm shots incredibly sharp, even in low light. The TC-14 clicks on seamlessly and adds zero noticeable image quality loss.

Miles ★★★★★

I shoot a lot of birds and this thing nails focus even at f/2.8 wide open, the dual focus buttons on the barrel make it so easy to lock onto a subject without taking my eye off the viewfinder. The included teleconverter is a great bonus, turning it into a 400mm equivalent that’s still tack sharp.
