Best for
This lens suits landscape, architecture, interior and travel photographers who want a genuinely wide angle of view in a lens small enough to carry all day. On the Micro Four Thirds format the 2x crop factor turns its 9-18mm range into an 18-36mm equivalent, so you get true ultra-wide coverage without a bulky lens. It has no optical stabilisation of its own, instead relying on the in-body stabilisation found in most Olympus and OM System bodies. Being a native Micro Four Thirds lens, it mounts on any MFT camera, including Olympus and OM System models as well as Panasonic Lumix G bodies.
Frequently asked questions
What is the equivalent focal length on full frame?
On Micro Four Thirds the 2x crop factor gives an equivalent field of view of roughly 18-36mm in 35mm terms.
Does it fit Panasonic Lumix cameras?
Yes. It uses the native Micro Four Thirds mount, so it works on Panasonic Lumix G bodies as well as Olympus and OM System cameras.
What filter size does it take?
It has a 52mm filter thread, and the front does not rotate during focusing, which helps when using polarising or graduated filters.
Does the lens have image stabilisation?
No, there is no optical stabilisation built in. It relies on the in-body stabilisation provided by most Micro Four Thirds cameras.
