Key Features

Ultra-Fast f/1.2 Aperture

• Exceptional Low-Light Performance: The f/1.2 maximum aperture allows for superior light-gathering capabilities, making it ideal for shooting in dimly lit environments while maintaining high image quality.
• Beautiful Bokeh: The wide aperture creates a shallow depth of field, producing smooth, creamy bokeh that beautifully isolates subjects from their backgrounds. This is perfect for portraiture and artistic photography.

Professional-Grade Optics

• Advanced Optical Design: The lens is constructed with 19 elements in 14 groups, including special lens elements such as Super ED, ED, EDA, and aspherical elements. These elements work together to minimize chromatic aberrations, distortions, and ghosting, delivering sharp, clear images with high contrast across the entire frame.
• ZERO Coating: Olympus’s Z Coating Nano technology significantly reduces reflections, ghosting, and flare, ensuring superior contrast and color accuracy, even in challenging lighting conditions.

High-Speed Autofocus

• Fast and Accurate AF: The lens features an advanced MSC (Movie & Still Compatible) autofocus mechanism, which provides fast, quiet, and accurate focusing, making it suitable for both still photography and video recording.
• Manual Focus Clutch: For photographers who prefer manual focus, the lens includes a focus clutch mechanism that allows for quick switching between autofocus and manual focus modes, providing precise control over focusing.

Robust and Weather-Sealed Build
