Best for
This lens suits Micro Four Thirds shooters who want a light, do-everything walkaround zoom with PRO-grade weather sealing - from travel and street to landscapes and close-ups. Remember that MFT uses a 2x crop factor, so the 12-45mm focal length gives a 24-90mm equivalent field of view. It mounts on any Micro Four Thirds body, including all Olympus and OM System cameras (OM-1, OM-3, OM-5, E-M1, E-M5 and PEN series) as well as Panasonic Lumix G bodies such as the GH and G9 series.
Frequently asked questions
