Photorumors is reporting that the Swedish website Fotosidan included in their review of the Panasonic G9 details about Panasonic’s lens roadmap, which clearly states that the Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 50-200mm f/2.8-4 ASPH Power OIS will be coming next, which you can see in the above screenshot. While this lens isn’t completely new it is the first we have heard about it in a while and when it is released it will be Panasonic’s 10th premium lens after the release of the Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f/2.8 POWER O.I.S., which was announced the other day.
The Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 50-200mm f/2.8-4 ASPH Power OIS was first displayed at the 2016 Photokina show:
