Prime Portrait lens for Micro FourThirds

• Fast 75mm f1.8 Telephoto Lens
• Equivalent to 150mm in 35mm Format
• Compact (2.7x2.5"), Lightweight (10.7oz)
• Fast, Quiet Autofocusing Ideal for Video
• Three ED Elements Correct Aberrations
• Lens Coating Reduces Reflectance

The Olympus 75mm f1.8 M.Zuiko Digital ED is a beautiful high-quality medium length telephoto lens (equivalent to 150mm in 35mm or full-frame format) for Micro 4/3. The large f/1.8 maximum aperture makes it a natural for portraits and low-light work--the 9-blade diaphragm delivers very sweet bokeh, and you'll be able to keep photographing for a long time after the light starts to fade.

This is a small (2.7 x 2.5") lens that weighs only 10.7 oz, despite having 10 elements in 9 groups. The fast, quiet MSC (Movie & Still Compatible) autofocus mechanism makes this a great choice for shooting video as well as stills. The precision-touch metallic focus ring delivers firm, easy manual focusing, as well.

There are three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements that correct aberrations to a large degree, and Olympus’s ZERO (ZUIKO Extra-low Reflection Optical Coating) lens coatings reduce reflectance to as little as half that of conventional coatings.

Enhanced creative options

Capable of delivering an attention-grabbing shallow depth of field when shooting portraits, and attractively defocused surroundings, the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 75mm 1:1.8 is a large-aperture supermodel of a lens that delivers everything an enthusiast could ask for.

High-speed AF with low noise

When used in AF mode, this high-performance lens is not only super-fast, it is also whisper-quiet. This makes the 75mm portrait prime lens ideal for shooting videos too. An inner focus mechanism with one focusing lens drive delivers a closest focusing distance of 0.84m.

High-quality build

This lens’s full metal assembly goes hand in hand with its conveniently lightweight and compact body, featuring a length of just 69mm despite its super-bright aperture of 1:1.8. The premium feel and fine-tuned focus ring make it a pleasure to use in manual mode too.
