From the Manufacturer
The Panasonic Lumix G Fisheye 8mm/F3.5 lens (H-F008) is a 35mm camera equivalent 16mm lens, and the world’s smallest and lightest* digital interchangeable fisheye lens compatible with the Lumix G Series, DSL Micro (DSLM) cameras.
Featuring a 180-degree diagonal angle view, the Lumix G Fisheye 8mm/F3.5 lens offers a distinctive viewpoint and unique deformation effect, creating a creative view for both photos and video. Additionally, its compact size may also be attributed to its ten lenses in nine groups, which takes good thing about the Micro Four Thirds system standard to succeed in dramatic downsizing.
The adoption of an ED (Extra-low dispersion glass) lens achieves a stable, descriptive performance at all distances, to minimize chromatic aberration and distortion. The Lumix G Fisheye 8mm lens has the ability to capture extreme close-united states of americafrom far away, due in part to its advanced inner focal point system.
The H-F008, Fisheye 8mm lens allows to be used of the high-speed and accurate contrast AF system when mounted at the Panasonic Lumix G Series DSLM cameras, for more comfortable and enjoyable shooting. Seven blades give the aperture a rounded shape that produces an attractively smooth effect in out-of-focal point areas when shooting at larger aperture settings. The inclusion of a stepping motor allows for smooth and silent focusing in both photo and movie recording modes.
