Which lens do you need for your Panasonic mirrorless camera?
You have a Panasonic mirrorless camera and you want a new lens. But which lenses fit on your camera? Panasonic has a large assortment. In addition, lenses from Olympus have the same mount, so they're suitable for your Panasonic camera. We'll explain which lenses fit on your Panasonic mirrorless camera here.
Panasonic mirrorless cameras with Micro Four Thirds sensor
The mirrorless cameras from Panasonic have a Micro Four Thirds mount and sensor. You can also place lenses with an MFT mount. The sensor is smaller than full-frame and APS-C sensors, so they have a crop factor of 2. This doubles the focal length of your lens. This allows you to zoom further with your lens, which is useful to capture subjects from a long distance. Olympus has lenses with an MFT mount, just like Panasonic. That's why these Olympus lenses are also suitable for your Panasonic mirrorless camera.
Panasonic S mirrorless camera with full-frame sensor
For full-frame mirrorless cameras, Panasonic started to work together with Leica. They have made an L mount that you can find on Panasonic S cameras. On these full-frame mirrorless cameras, you can fit Panasonic S lenses. Leica and Sigma lenses are also suitable. You can switch these lenses with MFT cameras from Olympus and Panasonic.
