This is the successor to the popular classic Micro Four Thirds M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm F2.8 PRO standard zoom lens (released November 29, 2013) and offers improved image quality and weather-resistant performance thanks to the latest technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0554\/9657\/3025\/files\/12-40mm_keypanel_3_1.jpg?v=1711115003\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurther improved high image quality and a compact, lightweight design in a standard zoom lens with a fixed maximum aperture of F2.8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptical design with 14 elements in 9 groups for excellent resolution across the entire zoom range\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model uses an optical design with 14 elements in 9 groups (1 EDA lens, 2 aspherical lens, 1 DSA lens, 2 ED lens, 1 HD lens, 2 HR lens) with 4 aspherical lenses including a DSA lens effectively placed to achieve a compact, lightweight form and superior depictive performance of an M.Zuiko PRO lens. Effectively compensating for aberrations that occur when zooming, results in high resolution from the center to the edges of the frame across the entire zoom range, from wide-angle 24mm equivalent to mid-telephoto 80mm equivalent.
