Lumix S PRO 16-35mm F4 overview
The Panasonic Lumix S PRO 16-35mm F4 is a 16–35mm f/4 zoom for full-frame cameras on L-Mount, announced by Panasonic in November 2019. 24 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits landscapes and interiors. It is a weaker pick for low light without a tripod.
New, it sells for $1,399.95 to $1,549.99 at the 3 stores we track in the United States that have it in stock; used and refurbished copies start at $1,099.95. Over the last 90 days it has usually cost $1,148 to $1,590 new. It launched at $1,499.
Worth comparing it with the Sigma 16-28mm F2.8 DG DN | Contemporary, Panasonic Lumix S 14-28mm F4-5.6 Macro and Sigma 14-24mm F2.8 DG DN | Art.
