Review on Olympus Zuiko Digital Thirds Cameras by Craig Pham

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Recommended lens for MFT system

I recently bought this lens from Revain as I was looking for a wide angle lens, good for landscapes and low light, with a bright aperture and quality glass. Oly 12mm f2 0.0 lens is the lens to go for as it is the only focal length. Pros: - Lens produces crisp images - Excellent color reproduction and focus - Well-built all-metal lens - Great design and nice to look at, especially when equipped with Olympus OMD - Fast autofocus - Great for Full HD movie recording with Olympus OMD - Lightweight and small lens. Distortions in the corners are a real minus when photographing portraits of people. You need to make sure you keep people in the center of the lens, or use software that corrects distortion. The build quality of the lens is inferior to the perfectly built Oly 75mm f2.0, also made in Japan. Oly 12mm f2.0 is made in China. A bit expensive. The black lens is available in limited quantities and is expensive.
