Overview

Micro Four Thirds System, 24-200mm (35mm Equivalent), Aperture Range: f/4 to f/22, Aspherical and Low Dispersion Elements, Rounded 7-Blade Diaphragm

Description

The Olympus M.Zuiko 12-100mm f/4.0 IS PRO zoom lens was designed and developed to provide excellent image quality and high magnification, all in a compact size. When combined with a Sync-IS-compatible camera, 5-axis Sync IS can be utilized, delivering the world's most powerful stabilisation performance equivalent to 6.5 shutter speed stops. This is a professional high-magnification zoom lens that truly meets the demands of professional photographers.

This lens includes an in-lens image stabilisation system, which, when combined with the Olympus camera in-body 5-axis image stabilisation, makes 5-axis Sync IS possible. 5-axis sync IS achieves 6.5 shutter speed stops of stabilisation performance. On its own, the lens achieves 5 shutter speed stops of stabilisation performance.

Features

  • Spanning a wide-angle to telephoto range, this 12-100mm zoom is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and provides a 24-200mm equivalent focal length range.
  • Constant f/4 maximum aperture provides consistent illumination throughout the zoom range to benefit both stills and video applications.
  • One double-sided aspherical element and three aspherical elements are featured in the optical design to limit spherical aberrations for improved sharpness with reduced distortion. Additionally, five extra-low dispersion elements, two Super HR (high-refractive index) elements, and one HR element are also used to control chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for greater clarity and colour fidelity.
  • Both a ZERO Coating and a Z Coating Nano are applied to individual lens elements to noticeable reduce surface reflections and prevent lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast and colour neutrality in strong lighting conditions.
  • Lens-based image stabilisation helps to minimise the appearance of camera shake to benefit shooting handheld with this lens in difficult lighting conditions. Additionally, this lens supports Synchronised IS, which pairs the optical IS system with select Olympus cameras' 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilisation to control up to 6.5 stops of camera shake.
  • A MSC autofocus system provides quick, quiet, and precise focusing performance to benefit both still photo shooting and movie recording. Additionally, an MF clutch is used for fast changing to manual focus for more precise control.
  • Weather-sealed construction guards the lens against dust and moisture for working in harsh environments.
  • Circular seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

    Beautiful PRO quality lense that now lives on my GH5S as my "go to". The build quality and amazing Image Stabilization make even slow handheld video zooms throughout its impressive ranch possible. Some very minor cons. 1/ Yes it is heavy with quite a weight shift near the 100mm end of its range. 2/ The focus does move very slightly away then back when going from approximately 70mm to 100mm. A similar shift near the 12mm end but very stable in the mid ranch. Probably only noticeable on a slow zoom near F4. (It would not be noticed if the GH5S continuous autofocus didn't go on strike during even the slowest zooms. Hence MF is the only option during a zoom in on something.) 3/ The MF ring is very sensitive.
