Classic Design, Contemporary Beauty.
The Olympus M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12mm 1:2.0 doesn't just do the job all PEN photographers have been hoping for when it comes to taking pictures and recording video; it looks the part too. The physically compact lens has a high grade metal exterior, sophisticated texture and a high quality construction from the first component to the last.

Faster And Quieter Auto Focus (AF).
With the Olympus M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12mm 1:2.0 prime lens, the movie and still compatible ('MSC') AF mechanism benefits from the internal focusing mechanism used for conventional interchangeable lenses being improved by incorporating a screw drive mechanism - a metal shaft finished with sub-micron precision - instead of gears which cause noise. High precision plastics also ensure a quick, smooth, silent and moreover accurate AF drive.

Reduced Lens Flare, Enhanced Lens Coating.
The Olympus M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12mm 1:2.0 isn't just the ideal lens to fit for low light shooting as well as being very convenient to carry; it's truly multipurpose, coming up trumps in bright(er) conditions too.

World's First Mass Production Dual Super Aspherical (DSA) Lens.
The M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12mm 1:2.0 of course benefits from Olympus' rich heritage, high-end ZUIKO DIGITAL technologies and unparalleled know-how accumulated across many years in pursuit of high resolution and high performance.
