The M.Zuiko Digital ED 9-18mm f/4-5.6 Lens from Olympus is a compact and versatile wide-angle zoom lens, offering an equivalent focal length of 18-36mm for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Its sophisticated optical design, combined with a retractable mechanism, results in a streamlined profile while ensuring consistent sharpness and illumination across the entire zoom range. The lens incorporates two Dual Super Aspherical elements, one aspherical element, and a high refractive index element to effectively manage spherical aberrations and distortion, delivering exceptional sharpness and resolution. Additionally, an extra-low dispersion element minimizes chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range, enhancing clarity and color fidelity. This lens is further distinguished by its Move & Still Compatible autofocus system, which operates quickly, quietly, and smoothly, making it suitable for both photography and videography.
