LUMIX S 24-60mm Lens offers constant F2.8 brightness in a compact, lightweight design. Spanning 24mm wide-angle to 60mm standard, it’s ideal for landscapes, portraits, street scenes, and video—with smooth bokeh and excellent image quality throughout. Compatible LUMIX S cameras support Hybrid Zoom*, extending reach up to 187mm for added versatility.

Weighing approx. 1.2 lbs (544g) and measuring 3.93 in (99.9mm) in length, it’s easy to carry anywhere. The focus ring doubles as a customizable control ring, and manual focus is adjustable during zoom. Linear and non-linear focus modes let you fine-tune focus speed and feel to match your shooting style. LUMIX S Series lenses are part of the L-Mount Alliance.

Rugged dust/splash-resistant* design and common filters can be used. The S-S18 also excels in video recording performance with suppressed focus breathing, together with a micro-step aperture control for smooth exposure change.
