Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm f/1.2 PRO Lens

M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm f/1.2 PRO from Olympus

The M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm f/1.2 PRO from Olympus is a top-tier portrait-length lens for Micro Four Thirds users, offering a 90mm-equivalent focal length and a bright f/1.2 maximum aperture. This combination allows for beautifully shallow depth of field and excellent performance in low-light conditions. The lens features an advanced optical design with 14 elements in 10 groups, incorporating low dispersion, aspherical, and high refractive index glass elements to minimize aberrations and distortions, resulting in sharp, clear images with accurate color fidelity. A nine-blade aperture produces smooth bokeh for striking subject isolation, while a Z Coating Nano reduces flare and ghosting, ensuring enhanced contrast and clarity. The lens is also built to withstand tough environments, thanks to its weather-sealed construction. For autofocus, it employs a Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) system that provides fast, quiet, and smooth focusing, ideal for both stills and video. Additional features include a manual focus clutch for quick switching to manual focus, as well as a printed depth of field scale for precise pre-focusing and hyperfocal techniques.
