The M.Zuiko Digital ED 20mm f/1.4 lens from OM SYSTEM is a versatile wide-angle prime lens, offering a 40mm equivalent focal length for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Its ex pansive field of view is enhanced by a rapid f/1.4 maximum aperture, allowing for effective depth of field control and the creation of selective focus effects, particularly in challenging lighting situations. This compact lens is lightweight and designed for easy portability, delivering high resolution while also producing soft, delicate bokeh. It is particularly well-suited for extended shooting sessions focused on landscapes, nature, or travel photography. With reliable IPX1-rated weather sealing, photographers can confidently shoot in various environmental conditions. The optical design incorporates two aspherical elements, which minimize spherical aberrations, ensuring exceptional sharpness while also contributing to the lens's compact size and weight. Additionally, the Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system offers accurate, rapid, and silent focusing capabilities, making it ideal for both video and photography. This wide-angle prime is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and provides a 40mm equivalent focal length for 35mm format. It has a minimum focus distance of 9.8" for dynamic close-up imaging. The fast f/1.4 maximum aperture can achieve shallow depth of field and selective focusing effects and when working in difficult lighting conditions. The rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasingly soft, feathered bokeh when shooting everything from nature to portraits. Lens construction incorporates a sophisticated system of hermetic seals that lock out moisture, cold, and dust. The fully sealed splash, freeze, and dustproof design lends itself to use in a variety of locations and environments without the need for additional protective gear. It protects itself from harsh element and can continue to be used when the temperature dips down to down to -14°F / -10°C. When the lens is used with an Olympus splashproof body, IEC Standard publication 60529 IPX1 applies. Two aspherical elements, three ED elements, one super ED element, and two Super HR elements are used to reduce spherical aberrations and distortions and optimize light transmission in order to provide increased sharpness and more accurate color rendering. ZERO (Zuiko Extra-Low Reflection Optical) coating provides reduced lens flare and optimal color transmission. Fluorine lens coating repels dust, dirt, rain, and snow from the front element for easy cleaning. Movie & Still Compatible High Speed Imager (MSC) autofocus system benefits both photo and video applications due to its smooth, quiet, and fast performance. Show more
