Olympus 12-200mm f3.5-6.3 M.Zuiko Digital ED

12-200mm Olympus lens

A unique lens solution for most shooting situations, the M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OLYMPUS is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and covers a large equivalent focal length range of 24-400mm. Despite its long range, the lens is also characterized by its portable form factor, a minimum focusing distance of 8.7" and a sophisticated optical design, which includes a variety of aspherical, low-dispersion, and high-refractive index elements to produce well-corrected images. A ZERO coating has also been applied to help reduce lens brightness and ghosting for greater contrast and color fidelity when working in bright lighting conditions. In addition, this lens uses a film- and still-compatible AF system to achieve smooth, fast and near-silent focus performance that benefits photo and film applications.

• With an impressive range from wide-angle to super-telephoto, this 12-200mm zoom is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and provides an equivalent focal length range of 24-400mm.

• Three aspherical elements, one Super HR (high refractive index) element and two HR elements are presented in the optical design to limit spherical aberrations to improve sharpness with reduced distortion. In addition, two Super ED (extra low dispersion) elements and two ED elements are also used to control chromatic aberrations and color borders for greater clarity and color fidelity.

• A ZERO (Zuiko Extra-Low Reflection Optical) coating was applied to individual elements to minimize lens reflection and ghosting to improve contrast and color fidelity when working in bright lighting conditions.

• The Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system benefits photo and video applications due to its smooth, quiet and fast performance.

• The minimum focusing distance of 8.7" at the wide-angle end, and a working distance of 3.9", offers a maximum magnification of 0.46x to suit working with subjects in the foreground.

• Climate-sealed construction protects the lens from dust and moisture to work in harsh environments.

• The round seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasant bokeh quality.
