Along with leaked US price, the basic specs of upcoming Panasonic Lumix S 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 O.I.S. Lens now also leaked online. You can take a look at below:
- 17 elements in 11 groups (2 ED lenses, 1 UED lens, 1 UHR lens)
- Minimum shooting distance 0.54m (at 70mm) /0.74m (at 300mm)
- Maximum shooting magnification 0.5 times (at 300mm)
- Filter diameter is 77 mm
- Size is φ84 mm x 148 mm
- Weight is 790 g
The shortest shooting distance is quite short, and the maximum shooting magnification of 0.5x at the telephoto end is wonderful. Lenses of other companies in this class have a maximum shooting magnification of about 0.2 to 0.3 times, so this proximity performance is likely to be a considerable advantage.
