Best for
A reportage and documentary lens - the 34mm equivalent field of view is the classic street and environmental-portrait focal length, and f/1.2 buys both low-light capability and unusually shallow depth of field for the format. The PRO sealing makes it a genuine all-weather lens. Heavier and dearer than the 17mm f/1.8, which is the lighter everyday alternative.
Frequently asked questions
Is f/1.2 on Micro Four Thirds like f/1.2 on full frame?
For exposure, yes - f/1.2 is f/1.2 and gathers the same light. For depth of field, the smaller sensor means the blur is closer to what an f/2.4 lens gives on full frame. You still get very usable subject separation, and the low-light benefit is real.
Why choose this over the 17mm f/1.8?
The PRO adds weather sealing, noticeably better corner sharpness wide open, and the smoother out-of-focus rendering Olympus calls feathered bokeh. The f/1.8 is around half the weight and much cheaper - a better walkaround lens if you do not need sealing.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
