Following the S-R24105, Panasonic recently brought a new product, the LUMIX S 28-200mm F4-7.1 MACRO O.I.S. (hereinafter referred to as the S-R28200), which provides users with a new choice, solves the problem of the traditional 24-105mm focal length is slightly "short hands", and is an attractive entry-level hang-up lens.
Combined with the data published by this product, the S-R28200 has a decent aperture of 28 mm focal length F4 and 200 mm focal length F7.1, and it is a high-magnification zoom lens product with high mobility and outstanding performance in the dimensions of macro and portability. Today, the science and technology video evaluation room will take you to interpret this new product in combination with the real thing.

The on-hook lens is well matched, and the 93.4mm ultra-short design is out of the way
From the birth of the LUMIX lens group with a black "S" mark on a light gray background, to the current F1.8 corps supporting the LUMIX large aperture prime lens group, light and short have become the main trends in the development of LUMIX lenses.
The lens is designed with a caliber of 67 mm
The side of the lens is designed with an "S" mark in black letters on a gray background
The S-R28200 is a new LUMIX zoom product that fully inherits the characteristics of lightness and compactness. The lens has a 67mm design with a common aperture of 67 mm as the F1.8 Corps lens, and can be used with the same UV lens or ND filter as many of LUMIX's recently released lenses, realizing that the filter can be "bought without brains".
The length of the lens is approximately 93.4 mm when folded
With a lens length of only 93.4 mm, the S-R28200 is one of the smallest in its class. At present, the lens with a focal length similar to the "Tianya Mirror" is generally more than 110 mm, which also means that the length of the S-R28200 is only about 85% of similar products, which is more conducive to storage At the same time, it will not have an obvious protrusion when carried around, and it is one of the few existences in the "Tianya Mirror" that is not in the way when hung on the body.
The external zoom design makes it longer as the focal length increases
At the rear of the lens, we can see that the LUMIX S 100mm F2.8 MACRO has an L-mount design. Combined with the currently released photographic equipment, the lens can be used with Panasonic full-frame cameras, as well as Leica full-frame and APS-C format cameras. For users of Panasonic full-frame cameras, this lens is a cost-effective and mobile product.
In terms of weight, the S-R28200 also stands out. The 413-gram lens also weighs much less than the 500-800 gram range of similar products, and with its compact design, it reduces the burden of shooting and increases portability and mobility, especially during long-distance outdoor travel.
The picture is delicate and exquisite, and the middle area is even more resolvable
The S-R28200 adopts a design of 17 elements in 13 groups, with 1 ASPH lens, 4 ED lenses, and 1 UHR lens, to improve the image resolution and suppress chromatic aberration and phase contrast, helping photographers obtain delicate and realistic shooting images.

Sensitivity: ISO-100, Aperture: f/11, Shutter speed: 1/80s;
To help readers understand the resolution performance of the S-R28200 more intuitively, we selected the Panasonic S5M2x, which has approximately 24.2 million effective pixels, and tested it with a sensitivity of ISO-100.
The middle area of the screen is magnified to about 800%.
The edges of the frame are zoomed in to about 800%.
When the software zooms in the middle and edge of the photo to about 800%, you can see that the image taken with this lens still retains a delicate texture even after magnification. In particular, the texture of the statue and the wall, and the relationship between light and dark caused by the strong light at noon have been faithfully restored, and the resolution of the middle area of the picture is significantly stronger than that of the edge area, and the optical performance is excellent as an entry-level lens.
From the above set of MTF curves, we can see that the S-R28200 performs better in the horizontal direction of the pixel change in the center area, and slightly lacks the vertical performance in the edge area, which is consistent with the performance of the sample image.

This also means that for those who have secondary composition needs, it will be a more recommended choice to keep the picture elements they want to retain in the middle area of the shot.
From wide-angle to telephoto, 7x optical zoom is used for free shooting
As a "world-end mirror", the S-R28200 comes with a number of common focal lengths including 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 70mm, 100mm, 135mm, and 200mm. Below, let's take a visual look at the effect through a few dailies.

In terms of barrel distortion control, which we are particularly concerned about, at the 28 mm and 35 mm focal lengths, the images shot with the S-R28200 do not appear to be significantly squeezed in all directions or shrink to the middle as expected, and the performance is as good as many Panasonic LUMIX lenses, with a sense of depth and effectively reducing the difficulty of post-processing for architectural, humanities, and portrait photography.

The images shot with the S-R28200 mid-focal length are quite realistic. Compared to most zoom lenses with a wide-angle end, thanks to the excellent distortion control, the lens shoots at 50mm and 70mm focal lengths horizontally and vertically, making it easy to control and even beginners can get started.

As an entry-level lens, the S-R28200 is unique in its choice of medium and telephoto focal lengths. The lens has a new 105-200 mm focal length, which can compensate for the lack of focal length of 24-105 mm focal length lenses, helping users achieve higher magnification without losing pixels.

S-R28200 is a "Tianya Lens" with 7x optical zoom, with excellent barrel distortion suppression effect, suitable for shooting landscapes, architecture, portraits, humanities and other theme works, especially in scenes that cannot be close to the subject at all, the 200mm focal length will retain more picture pixels to a certain extent, which is more conducive to later secondary creation.
Excellent distortion suppression, reducing the difficulty of post-image adjustment
When we talk about shooting, we usually mention the word distortion. Especially for wide-angle lenses, in addition to barrel distortion and problems, trapezoidal distortion is also an unavoidable topic.

Sensitivity: ISO-6400, Aperture: f/6.2, Shutter speed: 1/60s;
Considering that the wider the focal length, the more pronounced the trapezoidal effect will be, and the effect of barrel distortion on the image will be correspondingly greater, so we bring about further testing. Even when we shoot with the lens tilted up, down, and left and right, we found that even without distortion correction, the S-R28200's 28mm wide-angle end did not show any straight lines from the middle to the edges, and the sense of depth caused by the wide angle was clearly revealed.

For those who need to shoot from a flat angle and hold the height that cannot be reached by hand, users can reserve slightly more space on both sides and upper sides in the early stage, and use the characteristics of low distortion and high resolution in the middle area of the lens to obtain the expected picture through Lr or PS one-click correction in the post-production period.

Excellent optical quality, presenting exquisite and delicate light spots
In terms of aperture, the lens supports a maximum aperture of F4 at a 28 mm focal length and a maximum aperture of F7.1 at a 200 mm focal length, which is generally decent for an entry-level lens. Although it does not have the shock of the constant aperture F4, considering the weight and volume of the constant aperture are greatly increased, it is still somewhat difficult to get rid of the "true fragrance" law after the actual use of the S-R28200.
The lens has a minimum focusing distance of about 0.14 meters
In terms of bokeh performance, although the aperture performance is good and featureless, the half-macro design with a recent focusing distance of about 0.14 meters allows photographers to have a new "curve to save the country" gameplay. By getting closer to the camera, photographers can easily get a photo with a great background blur.

For many users who have long been accustomed to using a wide aperture to shoot low-light environment footage, the F7.1 will bring some constraints in scenes similar to Xujiahui churches. However, the lens has a built-in I.S. stabilization function, and with the Panasonic body's built-in dual native ISO function, you can get a clear, textured image even in scenes with far lower than the safe shutter speed. Of course, for users who have an ISO-100 obsession, you can consider bringing a monopod to easily cope with low-light shooting scenes.

As we can see from the samples, the S-R28200 has a rounded spot with a 9-piece circular diaphragm blade, rich detail in the interior area, sharp edges and natural transitions, and an impressive optical performance that goes beyond the "entry-level" positioning.

Zoom in to about 800% of the picture
Through experience, it can be found that the S-R28200's anti-violet edge and anti-glare performance are also outstanding. In the scene of the large light ratio of the weak light in the noon church and the strong light outside, the lens reflects the light through the glass on the magenta on the wall in a natural way, and at the same time, it is difficult to find traces of purple edge in the magnified picture, and the overall performance is amazing.

High-speed focus and anti-shake Movies are easy to use
When paired with Panasonic full-frame cameras, the S-R28200 is compatible with 5-axis dual I.S. 2 (image stabilizer) for collaborative image stabilization in a variety of situations. So we paired it with a Panasonic S5M2x camera to try out the stability of shooting in a dim environment.

Easy gear is the best way to go
For those who love to shoot, a trip on the go-as-you-go may sound simple, but choosing what gear to bring to the home can take a lot of work. This time, the Panasonic LUMIX S 28-200mm F4-7.1 MACRO O.I.S lens will make you hesitate.
Even if the telephoto end reaches 200mm, we don't have to worry about it burdening our luggage, and with a length of only 93.4mm and a weight of about 413g, you can easily carry it with you. The wide focal length of 28-200mm also eliminates the need for cumbersome lens changes. High-quality image quality, high-speed focusing, and the collaborative image stabilization ability of a full-frame camera make it possible to freeze the moment with a single shot.
