Series Combining Clear Image Quality and High Mobility
The M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED series camera lenses are PRO lenses that maintain an F2.8 brightness across the entire zoom range. With advanced 'ZERO Coating', they minimize ghosting and flare to provide clear and sharp image quality.
Additionally, despite their compact and lightweight design, the lenses do not change length during zooming, achieving high mobility. The unique 'DUAL VCM Focusing System' allows shooting from a close distance of 70cm across the zoom range. Furthermore, they are equipped with dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof performance, making them suitable for use in harsh environments. They also offer high operability, featuring an 'MF Clutch Mechanism' for instant switching from AF to MF and customizable function buttons.
