Beautiful background blur
Bokeh is a key element in expressive photography, helping to highlight the subject or create a soft, dreamy effect. The large F1.8 aperture allows for beautiful defocus, making the subject stand out more than with a kit lens.
No matter the weather
IPX1 certification provides splashproof and dustproof protection for durability in challenging conditions. Its compact, lightweight design ensures easy portability, so you can shoot without worrying about wet gear. Capture landscapes in nature or city snapshots, even when the weather turns unexpectedly.
The art of image quality
The lens features a 9-element, 7-group configuration with 2 aspherical lenses, resulting in a high-performance, compact optical system. It maximizes the benefits of the Micro Four Thirds standard while remaining lightweight and compact at just 42 mm and 156 g. Despite the large-diameter F1.8 aperture, it fits comfortably in the palm, making it ideal for casual snapshots.
