The second edition of the M. Zuiko 2.8/12-40 mm ED PRO II shows an improved optical performance in all measured settings. The slightly lower resolution at 12 mm and the drop in contrast at the edges at 40 mm do cloud the positive impression. But apart from that, the lens pleases with a more even performance across the image height and a lower edge fall-off as well as less vignetting at an aperture of F2.8.

Product details
Discover the M.Zuiko Digital 12-40mm F2.8 PRO II. You'll love this fast, bright lens with its large aperture. It allows you to enjoy excellent image quality almost anywhere and at any time, even in less than ideal lighting conditions. Focus on your subject, not the weather. An advanced sealing system reliably protects the lens from dust, water, and freezing temperatures, ensuring worry-free photography. Experience the epitome of mobility. This pocket-sized lens weighs less than 400 g, making it 50% lighter than comparable standard zoom lenses for mirrorless cameras in the 35mm format. Zero Coating: The state-of-the-art coating prevents ghosting and flare, providing outstanding image quality in challenging shooting situations, such as backlighting. Simply wipe off dirt, dust, and snow without streaking. The advanced high-performance coating ensures your lens stays spotless. If you want to switch from autofocus to manual mode, just pull the focus ring towards you and continue shooting while the camera automatically refocuses. On the lens barrel, you'll find an L-Fn button that you can assign a specific function or custom setting to. A compact zoom lens is ideal for close-ups. Get as close as 20 cm to your subject and capture high-resolution images across the entire focal range. The mechanism designed for video and photo shooting has been revised. The lenses now operate faster and quieter, allowing for even quicker autofocus response.
