Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12mm f/2 Lens

A compact wide – angle prime with intuitive handling and an advanced optical design, the silver M.Zuiko Digital ED 12mm f/2 from Olympus is a 24mm equivalent lens for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. The wide focal length pairs with the bright f/2 maximum aperture to benefit available light shooting as well as astrophotography applications. The lens’s optical design makes use of one aspherical element, one DSA (Double Super Aspherical) element, and a Super HR (high refractive index) element to reduce spherical aberrations and control distortion for notable sharpness, and one extra – low dispersion element reduces color fringing for high clarity and color accuracy. Additionally, the lens is characterized by its Movie & Still Compatible autofocus system for quick and quiet performance, as well as a manual focus clutch and Snapshot Focus mode for intuitive control over focus position and depth of field.

• The wide – angle prime lens is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and offers a 24mm equivalent focal length.

• Bright f/2 maximum aperture benefits working in low – light conditions.

• Aspherical, DSA, and Super HR elements combine to control distortion and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness and resolution.

• One extra – low dispersion element minimizes chromatic aberration and color fringing for greater clarity and color fidelity.

• Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system benefits both photo and video applications due to its smooth, quiet, and fast performance.

• The manual focus clutch lets you quickly pull the focusing ring into place for direct, intuitive focus control. This also reveals the Snapshot Focus mode, which incorporates a depth of field scale for working with hyperfocal focusing and zone focusing techniques.

• The rounded seven – blade diaphragm produces a smooth bokeh quality.
