Olympus M.Zukio Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO

It is possible to achieve a closest focusing distance of 20cm from the sensor at all focal distances without switching to macro mode. At the telephoto setting, close-up shooting is possible up to 7cm from the end of the lens. Because of the focusing distance, macro shooting is possible up to a maximum image magnification of 0.3x. Wide-angle macro shooting with an exaggerated sense of perspective is possible. This 12-40mm F2.8 is a truly versatile lens.

ZERO Coating thoroughly eliminates ghosts and flares

Olympus’ highly-transmittable ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) Coating is applied to the lens surface and therefore eliminates previously hard-to-prevent occurrences such as ghosts and flares. ZERO Coating boasts clear image quality even under challenging conditions such as a backlit condition.

Dust-proof / Splash-proof / Freeze-proof

Dust-proof, splash-proof and freeze-proof performance are achieved through hermetic sealing, therefore allowing you to take your lens and matching camera into all kinds of terrains.

The manual focus clutch mechanism makes instant switching to manual focus easy

This lens is equipped with the manual focus clutch mechanism, as a result, this makes instant switching to manual focus easy by pulling the focusing ring towards you. By increasing resolving power with the snapshot focus mechanism, smooth and fine focusing equal to traditional manual focusing is possible.
