Panasonic Lumix G H-NS043E Leica DG NOCTICRON Micro 4/3 Lens 43 MM F/1.2 ASPH POWER OIS

The lens is specially designed for Panasonic LUMIX series Micro 4/3 mirrorless cameras. The DG H-NS043 captivates not only with its impressive aperture (F1.2) and optical image stabilization system (POWER OIS), but also with the ability to continuously focus in automatic mode.

LEICA Panasonic lenses, which have already become household names, allow the photographer to achieve amazing image quality.

Model DG H-NS043, in addition to first-class optics, is distinguished by high quality metal construction.

For the first time, LEICA Camera AG applied the NOCTICRON marking to the presented lens model, that is, an indication that the lens was designed specifically for Micro 4/3 cameras.

• two aspherical lenses that suppress spherical distortion and vibration;
• One lens with extra-low dispersion for sharpness and contrast without distorting colors at the edges;
• One high refractive index UHR lens for optical quality, including uniform image sharpness from center to edge.

The focal length of the LEICA DG H-NS043 is 42.5mm (85mm in 35mm camera equivalent). Excellent settings for portraits. Another interesting novelty of the line in the middle price range is the Panasonic H-HS043E lens.

Blur the background, creating a real work of art, thanks to F1.2 aperture. When shooting at low values, the blur is smooth and soft. This effect is achieved thanks to 9 aperture blades, forming a round hole. This feature of the lens allows you to shoot landscapes with a natural perspective by choosing the optimal aperture value (adjustable with the control ring located on the body).

The use of nanocoated lenses with minimum refractive indices in Panasonic lenses can significantly reduce the amount of glare in the visible range (380-780 nm), and this solution provides the highest image sharpness.

The optical POWER OIS incorporated in the lens effectively compensates for both fast movements of small amplitude and slow movements of large amplitude. Judging by user feedback, the stabilizer provides excellent conditions for taking clear pictures even in low light or natural hand shake.

The LEICA DG H-NS043 lens is equipped with an internal focusing system - hence the excellent image resolution with contrast throughout the entire applied range.

The new stepping motor guarantees smoother focusing and near-silent focusing, which is important both for photography in conditions where silence is required and for video shooting.

The contrast AF system featured on the LUMIX G cameras is far superior in accuracy and speed to phase detection AF, enabling the user to fully enjoy the benefits of high-tech shooting.

The elegant high-quality body and durable metal mount emphasize the belonging of the DG H-NS043 lens to the legendary LEICA family.
