The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 25mm f/1.8 is a versatile and straightforward lens designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras, offering a 50mm equivalent focal length. Its standard field of view is enhanced by a rapid f/1.8 maximum aperture, which allows for effective depth of field control and the creation of selective focus effects, making it particularly useful in challenging lighting situations. The optical design incorporates two aspherical elements that minimize spherical aberrations, ensuring a high level of sharpness while also contributing to a more compact and lightweight lens profile. Furthermore, the lens features a Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system, providing fast, silent, and accurate focusing capabilities suitable for both video and photography.
