OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 9-18mm f/4-5.6 II Lens (Micro Four Thirds)
A typical super-wide-angle lense tends to be big, heavy, and expensive, making it difficult for most camera users to take advantage of them. The M.Zuiko Digital ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6 II promises to change all this. With its ultra compact and lightweight design and the outstanding portability, thanks to the DSA (Dual Super Aspherical) lens, available only with the Four Thirds System, this lens will make super-wide-angle photography friendlier and more affordable. Despite its compact size — it’s just 49.5mm long and weighs a mere 155 grams — this lens boasts a long focusing range equivalent to 18-36mm on a 35-mm camera lens.
An Ultra Wide-Angle Zoom Lens for Enhanced Photographic Versatility
Featuring a focal length spanning 9-18mm (equivalent to 18-36mm in a 35mm format), a closest focusing distance of 25 cm across its entire range, and a maximum image magnification of 0.11x at the wide-angle setting and 0.2x at the telephoto setting in a 35mm equivalent, this lens proves to be an invaluable tool for expanding your photographic horizons in nature scenes.
Whether you’re capturing vast landscapes, utilizing the distinctive wide-angle capabilities inherent in an ultra wide-angle zoom lens, or taking wide macro shots of flowers and trees from a low angle, seamlessly incorporating the sky into your composition while emphasizing perspective by drawing closer to your subject, this lens delivers a wide array of creative possibilities. Moreover, its wide-angle framing is well-suited for capturing video footage of scenic outdoor landscapes.
Exceptionally Portable and Lightweight Design (Dimensions: 56.2 × 49.3 mm, Weight: 154 g) Delivering Outstanding Image Quality
Boasting a brilliantly compact and lightweight build, with dimensions of 56.2 × 49.3 mm and a weight of just 154 g, this lens ensures the highest image quality.
The lens employs a well-thought-out design, featuring two DSA (Dual Super Aspherical) lenses positioned at the front to capture a sweeping 100° wide angle. Additionally, a dual aspherical lens at the rear effectively corrects aberrations, contributing to the achievement of remarkable image quality within its compact form. When paired with an OM SYSTEM OM-5 interchangeable lens camera body, this lens forms a user-friendly, lightweight system, weighing in at just 568 g.
Furthermore, the lens is equipped with a retracting mechanism that minimizes the typically bulky profile of ultra wide-angle lenses, allowing it to shrink to a manageable 49.3 mm in total length, further enhancing its ease-of-use.
Freshly Redesigned Lens, Includes Innovative Petal-Shaped LH-55D Lens Hood
This lens showcases a brand-new color and knurling design, harmonizing its appearance with other M.ZUIKO lenses for a user-friendly and premium aesthetic. As a bonus, the newly introduced petal-shaped LH-55D lens hood is included and can be conveniently inverted for storage while on the move
