Amazingly small and light, this 50mm equivalent (25mm F2.8 Four Thirds lens) is ideal for anyone who wants an easy-to-carry lens for travel or everyday use. Combining portability with high optical performance. This general purpose lens, when combined with an Olympus E-System digital SLR, makes for an incredibly lightweight and portable package. At a scant 0.9 inches wide, the 25mm pancake lens is ideal for shooting portraits and intimate family gatherings. It contains an impressive five lens elements in four groups that deliver high resolution with negligible lens distortion. Built to be digital specific. Unlike traditional film lenses, the 25mm lens is digital specific. Zuiko Digital lenses deliver light directly to each of the imager’s pixels. The results are photos with rich, accurate color, high contrast, subtle gradation and spectacular edge-to-edge sharpness. Meticulously crafted from aspherical glass. Photos taken with ordinary spherical lenses are clear and sharp at the center but often lack clarity at the edges. Like all Zuiko Digital lenses, our 25mm lens uses aspherical lens elements to provide sharpness across the entire image. Every Zuiko lens features a built-in computer processor that actively communicates with the camera to correct any potential shading and distortion problems — something impossible with film lenses. |
