M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm F1.2 PRO overview
The OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm F1.2 PRO is a 45mm f/1.2 prime for Micro Four Thirds cameras on Micro Four Thirds, announced by OM System in October 2017. 37 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits portraits and low light. It is a weaker pick for close-ups.
New, it sells for A$1,453 to A$1,899 at the 3 stores we track in Australia that have it in stock. Over the last 90 days it has usually cost A$1,449 to A$1,452 new.
Worth comparing it with the Panasonic Leica DG Nocticron 42.5mm F1.2 ASPH. Power O.I.S., OM System M.Zuiko Digital 45mm F1.8 and OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 60mm F2.8 Macro.
