Features
■Achieving both high resolution, high performance, and miniaturization
Nine lenses in six groups, such as DSA lenses that require high-precision manufacturing technology and HR (high refractive index) lenses with high ability to correct spherical aberration, are condensed into a compact body weighing 120g and total length 35.5mm.
Even at the maximum aperture of F1.8, the image is clear and clear, with sharp depiction performance across the entire screen.
The know-how cultivated over many years and cutting-edge technology have enabled us to achieve high resolution, high performance, and compactness at a high level.
●Optical performance equivalent to high-grade lens ED 12mm F2.0
●Thoroughly eliminates ghost and flare “ZERO coating”
The lens surface is coated with ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating, which has good transmittance and completely eliminates ghost and flare, which have been difficult to prevent.
This ZERO coating provides clear depiction performance even under adverse conditions such as backlight.
- Demonstrates power when shooting in dark places "Large aperture F1.8" + "In-body image stabilization"
All models of Olympus' mirrorless single-lens camera OM-D series and PEN series have an in-body image stabilization mechanism.
When combined with this lens, which boasts a large aperture of F1.8, you can easily take blur-free photos in low-light environments such as at dusk or indoors, or in places where flash is prohibited such as zoos and aquariums.
■High-speed and quiet autofocus drive “MSC (Movie & Still Compatible) mechanism”
The ``MSC (Movie and Still Compatible) mechanism'' is an advanced optical design technology developed to achieve fast and quiet focusing while being lightweight and using a small number of lenses.
By eliminating gears that cause operating noise and adopting a mechanism consisting of a metal shaft finished with submicron precision and a feed screw (screw drive), the focus lens is directly driven.
This lens uses an inner focus method using this "MSC mechanism".
Focusing is achieved by optimally controlling the movement of three small, lightweight lenses.
This smooth autofocus operation allows you to enjoy stress-free and comfortable shooting not only for still images but also for videos.
■“Snapshot focus mechanism” that moves the focus to a specified distance
Equipped with a "snapshot focus mechanism" that allows you to enjoy snapshot photography more easily.
When you slide the focus ring toward you, a distance scale engraved on the lens barrel appears, and the focus position moves to the position on that distance scale. This mechanism enables instant pan-focus photography that focuses from the foreground to the background, as well as visual measurement.
■High quality metal exterior, high-quality form, and a design with a concentrated feel
The metal exterior has a hard texture that feels good to the touch, and the high-quality form gives off the concentrated feeling unique to precision equipment.It was designed with the desire to create something that has value that can be enjoyed for years to come.
When combined with a special metal lens hood and lens cap, its appeal becomes even more outstanding.
*Metal lens hood (LH-48B) and metal lens cap (LC-48/LC-48B) cannot be used at the same time.
*If you attach the metal lens hood "LH-48B" to this lens and use the optical viewfinder "VF-1", there will be significant vignetting within the field of view of "VF-1". Also, depending on the camera, the lens may be visible within the field of view even if the LH-48B is not attached.
