M.Zuiko Digital 45mm F1.8 overview

The OM System M.Zuiko Digital 45mm F1.8 is a 45mm f/1.8 prime for Micro Four Thirds cameras on Micro Four Thirds, announced by OM System in June 2011. 37 cameras we track take it without an adapter.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits portraits, low light and travel. It is a weaker pick for rain and dust as well as close-ups.

No store we track in Singapore lists it today. It is listed in the United States.

Worth comparing it with the Panasonic Lumix G 42.5mm F1.7 ASPH. Power O.I.S., Panasonic Leica DG Nocticron 42.5mm F1.2 ASPH. Power O.I.S. and OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm F1.2 PRO.
