The Panasonic LUMIX S 14-28mm f/4-5.6 MACRO is an ultra-wide zoom for full-frame L-mount cameras that manages something most 14mm lenses cannot: it accepts ordinary 77mm screw-in filters. Fourteen elements in ten groups, including aspherical, ED, and UHR types, hold the correction together across a 114 degree field, and closest focus stays at 0.15m through the whole range for 0.5x magnification at the long end.

At 345g and 89.8mm long it is small for what it covers, and internal focusing means the barrel stays put. The construction is dust and splash resistant down to 14F, with a fluorine coating on the front element that makes cleaning easier. Focus breathing is minimized and the aperture steps in micro increments, so it holds up for video as well as stills. If you shoot interiors, architecture, or landscape and want to know how it compares to the 18mm prime, come by Camera West and we will put both on your camera.

Buy from an authorized Panasonic dealer like Camera West to ensure a genuine product with full manufacturer warranty and expert support.

We highly recommend visiting us in person to experience our fine photographic tools before deciding which tool best fits your needs. Please note that our inventory is distributed among our three stores, and what you see online may be at any of these locations. Below are a few points that we’d like to make in order to meet your needs for in store pick up.

The location of each item is indicated online. For convenience, you can choose to pick up your item at any of our stores.

We request that you wait for a notification from us confirming that your order is ready for pick up, to ensure the best service.

If your chosen item is not available at your preferred store, we can transfer it there after purchase. If you want to pick up an item at a different store, select that store for pick up during checkout, or choose a regular shipping method and let us know your preferred pick up store via support@camerawest.com or by responding to your order confirmation email.

We offer a concierge trade-in program for the gear you'd like to upgrade, cross-grade, or simply pass on to a new owner. This enables you to acquire the tools that fit your specific needs.

Our online process is both personal and simple.

To begin, fill out the form on our Trade // Sell page with the details of the fine photographic equipment or watches you'd like to trade in.
