OM System PRO 12-40mm F2.8 II WP Zoom for Olympus - Black

The Olympus Pro 12-40mm f2.8 WP II lens takes the qualities of the original model and takes them one step further. The same compact size is intact, while the world-class optical design provides exceptional sharp and detailed image quality, throughout the 24-80mm equivalent zoom range. The optical design of this lens features a range of high-end optical elements (1 EDA lens, 2 aspherical lens, 1 DSA lens, 2 ED lens, 1 HD lens, 2 HR lens), while ZERO coating has also been applied to reduce flare and ghosting and to improve the performance during backlit conditions. Although compact and light enough for travel and everyday purposes, the Olympus Pro 12-40mm f2.8 WP II lens is tough and reliable enough for use out in the field. The lens features advanced dust, splash and freeze-proof build qualities to allow it to function at its best in the most tricky of outdoor conditions, while a Fluorine coating is also applied to the front element, a feature which makes it quick and easy to blow or wipe away any dust or dirt. This Olympus zoom lens will fit nicely into your workflow, whether you are using your mirrorless camera for still or video shooting - it acheives this thanks to its inclusion of a fast, smooth and accurate MSC AF motor. The lens is great for all subjects near and far, with a closest focus of 20cm available throughout the entire zoom range. Other important features of the 12-40mm Pro f2.8 WP II lens include a manual focus clutch mechanism, which is unleashed by pulling the focus ring forward, and an L.Fn button which allows the lens to be controlled with just a single finger.
