Panasonic LUMIX S S-E2460 24-60mm
A constant f/2.8 aperture across the 24-60mm zoom range in a 544g, dust and splash-resistant body makes this lens a uniquely portable option for full-frame L-Mount shooters. It offers strong close-up versatility with a 0.3x magnification and a 178mm minimum focus distance, plus a silent, focus-breathing-suppressed AF system for video work. This lens is best for hybrid shooters and travelers who need a fast, weather-sealed standard zoom that won't weigh down their kit.
