Panasonic LEICA DG 25-50mm F1.7

Panasonic has today teased the development of the new Leica DG 25-50mm F1.7 M4/3 lens. This lens falls into the same series as the Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Summilux 10-25mm f/1.7 ASPH.

The LEICA DG 25-50mm F1.7 and LEICA DG Vario-Summilux 10-25mm f/1.7 ASPH would make for a good combination on the upcoming GH6.

The lens will be coming sometime in 2021, but there is no indication yet about pricing. As a guide, the Panasonic LEICA DG Vario-Summilux 10-25mm f/1.7 ASPH retails for around $1800 USD.
