It makes high-resolution images full of depth, revealing previously unseen details in scenes, whether using the whole frame or utilizing the resolution to crop. This incredible performance has never been so accessible, thanks to the lens’s compact dimensions and light weight.
You don’t need to be an athlete to use this super telephoto lens. Every part of its design has been optimized to create an optic weighing just 1375g (48.5oz) – almost unthinkable for a lens with this reach – and without compromise in quality or handling. Super ED and ED elements prevent chromatic aberration, and its weight is evenly distributed for comfortable, sustained use.
Seeing the UnseenThe optical quality of GF500mmF5.6 R LM OIS WR brings unseen distant details to life. The sweat on an athlete’s brow, water on a bird’s plumage, and hairs on an animal’s body are all revealed to help tell your creative story. Two Super ED and five ED lens elements ensure aberrations are suppressed, while its optical configuration delivers the incredible high-resolution results and image-making possibilities expected from a large format system.
