The Perfect Portraits Lens This bright, large aperture F1.7 lens draws maximum light to produces a beautiful bokeh background defocus effect for impressive, more creative images. Together with a 42.5mm mid-telephoto focal distance (35mm camera equivalent 85mm), this lens is more than ideal for clear, detailed and expressive portraits.

Optical Image Stabilizer – LUMIX POWER O.I.S. Large aperture lenses can produce an optimum shallow depth of field effect, but even the slightest handshake can also produce out-of-focus images. The LUMIX POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer), however, quickly and reliably compensates for blurring to deliver crisp, super-clear shots even when shooting in low-lit situations.

Fast Auto Focusing - 240 fps Drive Capability With the LUMIX H-HS043K, both lens and camera sync at up to 240 fps* to take full advantage of the camera's high-speed AF system. Its inner-focus drive system and stepping motor performs smoothly and silently during photo and video recording. (*Sensor drive performance varies depending on the camera.)
