Olympus ES-M2518 M.Zuiko Premium 25mm f1.8 Standard Zoom Lens

Overview

High-image quality standard zoom lens that provides beautiful background defocusing effects
This high-image quality standard lens can be used for many situations from portraits to landscapes. You can easily capture images with beautiful background defocusing effects and can shoot in a dark room thanks to the wide aperture lens. It also features the fast, quiet AF system MSC that lets you surely capture the right moment.

Clear, sharp image quality with minimal aberrations
Convetional SLRs adopt a Gauss type lens construction for 50mm standard lenses, but Olympus adopts a new generation lens construction with an inner focus system for the digital age. The result is a quiet, fast autofocus and small sized lens. It contains 9 high-quality elements including aspherical lens elements to provide clear, sharp image from the centre to the edges without aberrations.

ZERO Coating eliminates ghosts and flares
ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) Coating is applied to the lens surface to eliminate ghosts and flares that used to be difficult to reduce because of their high transparency. ZERO Coating boasts clear image quality even under challenging conditions such as backlit conditions.

The fast, quiet AF lets you capture the right moment
The MSC (Movie and Still Compatible) mechanism with an inner focus system enables fast, smooth, quiet and precise auto focusing. By using it together with the FAST AF system of a PEN or OM-D series camera, you can surely capture the right shot at any time. It is also suited for quiet environments and movie shooting, due to the quiet AF.
