Olympus M.Zuiko Macro 60mm f/2.8 Lens (Black)

Description

This Olympus M.Zuiko Macro 60mm f/2.8 Lens features a dustproof and splashproof construction as well as high image quality and high contrast. With this lens you can shoot from far away to 1:1 magnification macro photography maintaining resolution and high contrast from the centre to the edges of the image. Also makes use of the sharp image capture from the widest aperture setting. In addition to nature macro photography, this lens is also ideal for landscapes and portraits.

This lens adopts a floating-type inner focusing system with three drive systems to achieve high image quality regardless of the focus distance (from landscapes to 1:1* macro shooting). ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and HR (High Refractive index) elements are employed in the fixed groups, while HR and E-HR (Extra-High Refractive index) elements are employed in the focusing groups. This optical design makes it possible to remove chromatic aberrations that tend to occur with macro lenses.

The MSC (Movie and Still Compatible) mechanism is the latest in optical design technology for achieving fast and silent focusing with a lightweight form and minimum number of lenses. The gears have been removed, eliminating operational noise. This mechanism drives the focusing lens directly using a metallic shaft and feed screws (screw drive) to enable fast, smooth, quiet, precise auto focusing.
