The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm F2.8 PRO II is a versatile, compact & lightweight, high-performance standard zoom Pro lens featuring the brightness of the F2.8 aperture across the entire zoom range. It is the successor to the M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm F2.8 PRO lens and offers improved image quality and weather resistant performance. Image quality with ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating This 12-40mm len uses an optical design with 14 elements in 9 groups (1 EDA lens, 2 aspherical lens, 1 DSA lens, 2 ED lens, 1 HD lens, 2 HR lens) with 4 aspherical lenses including a DSA lens effectively placed to achieve a compact, lightweight design. Effectively compensating for aberrations that occur when zooming results in high resolution from the centre to the edges of the frame across the entire zoom range. This high-performance lens utilises the high image quality performance of the camera body when using High Res Shot mode. The latest manufacturing techniques suppress surface scattering on aspherical lenses, significantly reducing flares compared to conventional products, resulting in clearer depictive performance. Optimal placement of coating, including ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating, improves resistance to backlighting. Improved weather sealing plus Fluorine coating added This lens includes improved dustproof and splashproof performance for peace of mind in adverse conditions. It can function in low-temperature environments down to -10°C, so you can shoot in the rain, snow and dusty environments. In addition to water, oil, and dust repellent performance, the fluorine coating on the front most lens is also effective in reducing friction. The lens can easily be cleaned with a blower or cloth when it gets dirty, allowing you to continue shooting. Versatile features including macro shooting This lens features a closest focusing distance of 20cm across the entire zoom range. At the wide-angle end, you can enjoy macro shooting with an enhanced sense of perspective, and at the telephoto end a maximum image magnification of 0.6x that rivals half-macro lenses for authentic close-up shooting. The lens is capable of various styles of macro shooting and includes support for Focus Stacking which is useful for close-ups. High-speed, silent AF The compact, lightweight focusing unit consisting of two cemented lenses is powered by a linear motor driving MSC (movie and still compatible) mechanism, resulting in high-speed, silent AF. This design makes shooting still images and videos easy. The lens is capable of approximately 50 fps (AF/AE tracking) sequential shooting on the OM SYSTEM OM-1 thanks to advanced camera control technology. Controls for quick setting changes Pull the focus ring toward you to instantly switch to manual focus with the Manual Focus Clutch mechanism and use the L-Fn (lens function) button to control the lens with a single finger. These features allow users to quickly switch settings as needed to continue shooting without delay.
