The Olympus 25mm f/2.8 ED Zuiko Lens is an ultra-slim "pancake-style" standard focal length lens that only weighs and astonishing 3.35 oz (95g). This compactness is accomplished by incorporating a special double-sided aspherical lens element. It is compatible with any digital SLR camera that uses the Four Thirds System (e.g. Olympus, Panasonic), but is designed to perfectly complement the E-410 and E-420 camera bodies in size and weight. Combined with these models, a coat-pocketable SLR camera is now a reality.
This lens provides a focal length equivalent to 50mm in 35mm format. This view is ideal because of the natural-looking "human-eye" perspective, and can be used for a wide range of portraiture, landscape, reportage, street photography and candid snapshot applications.
