Standard lens Panasonic H-XA025E 9 elements 7 groups Black

The Panasonic H-XA025E is a standard Micro Four Thirds lens with a bright maximum aperture of F1.4 and a compact 9-element/7-group optical design. It delivers high image quality with minimal distortion and includes Panasonic's Nano Surface Coating to reduce ghosting and flare. The lens is lightweight, has a 46 mm filter thread, a minimum focus distance of 0.3 m and is suitable for MILC/SLR cameras requiring a compact, high-speed standard lens.

Advantages

This LEICA DG SUMMILUX-designed optic provides excellent edge-to-edge sharpness and controlled distortions. The fast F1.4 aperture improves low-light performance and depth-of-field control, while the high-speed AF system (240-fps AF control) enables precise subject acquisition. Nano Surface Coating reduces unwanted reflections, producing clearer images in challenging lighting conditions. The lens is compact and lightweight, making it practical for everyday use.

Suitable for

• Everyday and travel photography
• Low-light and indoor shooting
• Portraits with shallow depth of field
• Street and documentary photography

How to use

Attach the lens to a Micro Four Thirds camera body by aligning the mount marks and rotating until it locks. Use the wide F1.4 aperture for low-light situations or to achieve shallow depth of field; stop down toward F16 when greater depth of field or maximum sharpness is required. For close subjects set the focus to the minimum focusing distance (0.3 m) and use autofocus or manual focus as needed. Fit a 46 mm filter if required for protection or additional effects.

Recommendations

For best results, combine the H-XA025E with a Micro Four Thirds camera that supports high-speed AF to take advantage of the 240-fps AF control. Use Nano Surface Coating benefits by avoiding strong direct light sources at the edge of the frame when possible and clean lens elements with a microfiber cloth to maintain image clarity.
