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
What is the 35mm equivalent focal length?
On the Micro Four Thirds 2x crop, the 12-45mm covers roughly a 24-90mm equivalent field of view - a classic wide-to-short-telephoto standard zoom range.
Is the aperture constant across the zoom range?
Yes. It holds a constant f/4 maximum aperture from 12mm to 45mm, so exposure stays consistent as you zoom.
Is it weather-sealed?
Yes. It has splashproof and dustproof PRO construction with an IPX1 rating, so it can handle light rain and dusty conditions on a compatible sealed body.
How close can it focus?
It focuses to 0.12m (12cm), giving a maximum magnification of 0.25x (0.5x in 35mm-equivalent terms) for near-macro close-ups.
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..
