Shoot First. Focus Later.

Panasonic's 4K technology gives you the remarkable capability of refocusing an image even after it has been taken. Select the in-focus area after shooting with the Post Focus function. With the Focus Stacking function you can combine several images with different focus distances in order to get the perfect focus range in your image. Especially helpful in macro photography where you have a shallow depth of field.
