Product Features in Detail

Micro Four Thirds System

The OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens are smaller in size than comparable lenses with a full-frame system and they can be attached to smaller camera bodies. With the micro four thirds system, the angle of view is approximately equivalent to a 24mm lens on a full-frame sensor. You have a lightweight, affordable, and highly-compatible lens with the OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens.

24-80mm (35mm Equivalent)

The OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens is a 35mm lens that guarantees the sharpest and best applications for architecture, travel, portraits, and landscape photography.

Portrait photography requires great skill, which makes it important to consider the lens length. The lens length affects the field of view, depth of field, perspective, inclusion and exclusion. A 35 mm lens has a wide angle with a short depth of field which is ideal for landscape photography and architecture, characteristics you’ll find with the OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens.

ZERO & Fluorine Lens Coatings

The ZERO coating is designed to minimize lens flare and ghosting on cameras to give you a better image and a greater color range under strong lighting conditions. The fluorine coating protects the surface from corrosion, water, chemicals and other materials. This guarantees that your lens is ready to use any time and anywhere without any potential hazards.

High-Speed MSC AF System

Image quality benefits as well as camera lens compatibility are common with a highly effective MSC system. MSC lenses are superior in quality to traditional lenses, making them more affordable and providing better image quality, results that you’ll get with the OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II Lens.

Fluorine Coating

Fluorine coating protects the optical system against dusty, water droplets, or greasy surfaces. It can be removed easily even when it has become attached to the lens surface.
