The 9mm f/5.6 Full Frame lens is coming for E/R/Z/L mount cameras
The 35mm f/0,95 APS-C lens is coming for E/R/Z/L/X/MFT mount cameras

The lens will soon be listed on their Amazon page. It’s not a fisheye lens but an extreme ultra wide angle lens. Curious to see how it performs!

Asobinet reports about a hands-on testing of the new DJI LiDar system when combined with the S1H:

• Combination of LUMIX S1H and LiDAR
• No need for calibration, can be used directly
• The RS Pro3 and LiDAR aren’t cheap, but this whole package, the S1H, is very cheap and the overall image quality is a very good result.
• Not a bad shooting solution
• I don’t think you need a stabilizer
• For now, only RS3 Pro supports LiDAR
  → other support can be expected with updates
• LiDAR to gimbal, gimbal to camera connection
• 1: LiDAR captures the subject
  2: Camera focuses on the subject
• Not only follow focus
• Focus performance can be improved no matter how dark it is
• Compatible with LUMIX S5II
• Currently not compatible with Micro Four Thirds
• LUMIX S5 is not currently supported

Today Panasonic held an event in China. They announced a new Lidar partnership with DJI and also a new S lens roadmap. The S lens roadmap now teases the launch of:

• a zoom lens in the 30-70mm range (Could be 28-70mm f/2.8)
• a zoom lens in the 100-400mm range

DJI and Panasonic also teased a partnership when it comes to Lidar AF technology. It’s unclear how this will work and when they will bring this. But on images you can see a Lidar system mounted on the hot shoe:
