The Olympus 25mm f/1.2 is an incredible lens. Being super fast and super sharp, with a high end build quality resulting in premium optics and weather sealing. Being able to withstand most weather conditions it is great for all kinds of photography. This includes street photography, low light photography, portrait work and a general day to day photos. Built with a high speed autofocus motor compatible with stills and movie modes. Having a wide open aperture of f1.2 gives it a shallow depth of field, creating a smooth blurred background separating the subject.
Being able to use the lens wide open during the day we recommend looking at getting a ND filter to be able to shoot wide open, and get the right exposures.
This lavish lens construction consists of 19 elements in 14 groups for smoothly blended, beautiful defocusing effects and excellent resolution. This is a large-diameter standard lens for capturing scenery exactly as it appears to the eye.
