The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12mm f/2 is a compact wide-angle prime lens designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras, offering a 24mm equivalent focal length. Its advanced optical design features a bright f/2 maximum aperture, making it ideal for low-light photography and astrophotography. The lens incorporates one aspherical element, one Double Super Aspherical (DSA) element, and a Super High Refractive (HR) element, which work together to minimize spherical aberrations and distortion, ensuring exceptional sharpness. Additionally, an extra-low dispersion element is included to mitigate color fringing, enhancing clarity and color fidelity. The lens also boasts a Movie & Still Compatible autofocus system, providing fast and silent operation, along with a manual focus clutch and Snapshot Focus mode, allowing for precise control over focus and depth of field.
