Carry the power of 500mm anywhere

The Panasonic Lumix 100-500mm lens is a masterful creation tailored for photographers who demand precision and versatility in challenging shooting scenarios. Its ultra-telephoto zoom range of 100-500mm (35mm camera equivalent of 200-1000mm) makes it an exceptional choice for capturing distant subjects, whether it’s elusive wildlife in their natural habitat, the electrifying intensity of a sports event, or breathtaking astrophotography. Equipped with a fast and accurate Dual Phase Linear Motor, this lens ensures rapid autofocus performance and smooth subject tracking, even with fast-moving objects. The lens’s optical design is equally impressive, featuring advanced lens elements that minimize chromatic aberration and distortion, delivering sharp, high-contrast images across the frame. Its compact and lightweight construction, measuring just 196mm, defies the traditional bulkiness of telephoto lenses, allowing photographers to shoot handheld comfortably for extended periods. Furthermore, the rugged dust- and splash-resistant body ensures durability under challenging environments, so you can confidently traverse into unpredictable weather conditions without compromising performance. From supreme image quality to exceptional portability, the Lumix 100-500mm lens truly exemplifies innovation in modern photography.

Sharp Detail Across the Frame

Exceptional image quality is delivered seamlessly from 100mm to 500mm, meticulously capturing fine details across the entire frame. At 500mm, the lens provides stunning compression effects while preserving remarkable clarity. This versatility makes it ideal for capturing everything from the intricate curves of vehicles to the delicate textures of birds and other wildlife.

Zoom up to 1000mm With Teleconverters

With a focal length ranging from 700mm* to an impressive 1000mm* when paired with compatible 1.4x (DMW-STC14) and 2.0x (DMW-STC20) teleconverters (available separately), this versatile setup unlocks a world of possibilities for telephotography enthusiasts. Its compact design ensures effortless handheld shooting without the need for a tripod, making it the perfect companion for capturing dynamic scenes in the field. *Please note that using the teleconverter reduces the effective aperture by one f/stop with the DMW-STC14 or two f/stops with the DMW-STC20.​

Beautiful Bokeh That Enhances Your Subject

The seamless shift from sharp focus to a gentle blur crafts a natural depth and rich, textured appeal. Meticulously designed optics reduce edge fringing, vignetting, and double-line distortions, delivering breathtaking bokeh that accentuates your subject with remarkable clarity and striking presence.

Capture Beauty Up Close

Effortlessly capture the world’s delicate beauty with an impressively close focusing distance of 0.8m* at the wide end, and achieve a stunning maximum magnification of 0.36x** at the telephoto end. This versatility makes it perfect for photographing everything from vibrant, blooming flowers to delicate butterflies resting within arm’s reach. *At 100mm focal length, the closest focusing distance is 0.8m; at 500mm, it is 1.5m. **Maximum magnification is 0.16x at 100mm and 0.36x at 500mm.​

Up to 7 stops* of image stabilization with Dual I.S. 2

Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.), in harmony with Dual I.S. 2, collaborates seamlessly with the camera’s Body Image Stabilization (B.I.S.) to provide up to 7 stops of stabilization at telephoto distances. This advanced integration empowers photographers to confidently capture handheld shots at telephoto or with slow shutter speeds, all while minimizing the risk of hand-shake blur.

Easy to carry, ready for the field

With an impressive 500mm focal length packed into a compact body measuring approximately 196.1mm and weighing just 1,285g, this ultra-telephoto zoom lens is perfect for capturing the action wherever it unfolds. Its lightweight and portable design make it ideal for situations where heavy equipment is unwieldy or tripods are restricted. Offering remarkable mobility, it enables handheld shooting with ease, ensuring that no decisive moment slips away.

Stella ★★★★★

The 500mm reach on this lens is incredible, especially handheld – I was surprised how steady the O.I.S. kept things even at full zoom. Sharpness holds up well across the range, and the compact design makes it easy to carry on long hikes.

John R. ★★★★★

I've been shooting wildlife with this lens for a few weeks now, and the O.I.S. stabilization really helps keep things sharp even when I'm handholding at 500mm. The zoom ring action is smooth and precise, making it easy to track fast-moving subjects. A solid workhorse for long-distance shooting.

Penelope S. ★★★★★

This lens is heavy, but the reach is unreal—I handheld a 500mm shot and the optical stabilization kept it crisp enough to crop in later. The zoom ring is smooth, and honestly, the versatility from 100 to 500mm means I rarely swap glass on a hike now.
