*Lens for Micro Four Thirds
◆Open F1.7 large aperture medium telephoto portrait lens
A large aperture medium telephoto lens that can capture subjects impressively with beautiful bokeh.
The brightness of the open F1.7 allows you to shoot at a fast shutter speed without increasing the ISO sensitivity even at dusk or in a dimly lit indoor environment, achieving beautiful depictions with reduced noise and camera shake.
The medium telephoto 85mm (35mm equivalent) is a focal length suitable for portrait photography. The natural perspective captures the subject in the details as you see it.
The lens is made up of 10 elements in 8 groups, including aspherical lenses.
It effectively prevents spherical aberration, distortion, and even chromatic aberration, and achieves a three-dimensional depiction without blurring the contours of the subject.
The minimum aperture is F22.
It can be narrowed down even in bright daylight, allowing for a wide range of expression.
◆ Minimum shooting distance of 31 cm for impressive close-up photography
The minimum distance at which you can focus on the subject is 31 cm, so you can enjoy taking pictures of food and small items on the table while sitting in a chair.
Focusing with a shallow depth of field can also be reliably operated with the focus ring.
In addition, by making the most of the features of the Micro Four Thirds System standard, we have achieved a small and lightweight design despite the large aperture lens.
It is easy to carry and is also suitable for handheld snapshots outdoors.
◆ Realizes high-precision, high-speed contrast AF
Compared to phase-difference AF, contrast AF achieves higher AF accuracy even with a small F-number.
You can achieve high-precision focusing that meets the photographers intentions.
In addition, this lens supports high-speed, high-precision contrast AF with 240 fps operation, allowing for quick focusing on moving subjects.
◆Optical image stabilization "POWER O.I.S." for stable framing even when shooting handheld
Equipped with "POWER O.I.S.", a gyro sensor installed inside the lens housing detects and corrects camera shake.
It detects shake 4,000 times per second, and detects and corrects low-frequency camera shake as well as high-frequency liquidation shake.
It suppresses camera shake even when handheld, allowing for stable framing.
