Constant Aperture Performance

Distinguished by its constant f/4 maximum aperture, this lens delivers consistent exposure and performance throughout the zoom range. The fixed aperture also allows the lens to maintain a sleek and lightweight physical design, striking an effective balance between brightness and portability.

Advanced Optical Construction

The optical design incorporates a range of specialised elements to maintain high image quality across the zoom range. These include two aspherical elements, one Dual Super Aspherical element, two extra-low dispersion elements, one Super HR element, and two HR elements, all working together to minimise aberrations, distortion, and colour fringing while enhancing sharpness, clarity, and colour accuracy.

Enhanced Contrast and Colour

A Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical coating is applied to individual elements to suppress flare and ghosting. This coating helps preserve contrast and colour fidelity when shooting in strong or backlit lighting conditions, ensuring more consistent results in challenging environments.

Smooth Autofocus and Close Focusing

Complementing the optical performance is a Movie and Still Compatible autofocus system that delivers fast, smooth, and near-silent focusing for both photography and video. The lens also offers impressive close-focusing capabilities, with a minimum focusing distance of 11.94 centimetres at the wide end and 23.11 centimetres at the telephoto end, achieving a maximum magnification of 0.25x.

Professional Build and Bokeh Quality

Built for reliable use in demanding conditions, the lens features a dust-, freeze-, and drip-proof construction. A rounded seven-blade diaphragm further enhances image quality by producing a smooth and pleasing bokeh, making the lens suitable for both practical and creative applications.
