Olympus ED 40-150mm f4.0/5.6 & MMF-2 Kit
A high-power wide to telephoto zoom, the M.Zuiko Digital ED 14-150mm f/4.0-5.6 lens (28-300mm in 35mm equivalent) offers amazing optical performance in an extraordinarily compact and lightweight design that translates into taking your PEN camera anywhere for DSLR-quality images and unmatched freedom and creativity.
The Micro Four Thirds System standard meets the telecentric requirements of the 100 percent dedicated digital design, where light rays must strike the imaging sensor nearly head-on for optimum edge-to-edge image reproduction. This is achieved using a much smaller design than the Four Thirds System standard by reducing the outer diameter of the lens mount by 6mm, and the distance from the lens mount to the focal plane (the flange back distance) by approximately half.
It uses use ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements to suppress the color aberration that can degrade image quality, particularly at wide-angle focal lengths. As a result, they will offer truly uncompromising image quality and brightness in an extremely compact package.
The Olympus MMF-2 Four Thirds to Micro Four Thirds Lens Adapter makes it possible to mount any existing Four Thirds lens on a Micro Four Thirds digital camera such as the Olympus E-P1, E-P2, and E-PL1. AF shooting using Live View is possible with lenses featuring contrast AF compatibility. When a contrast AF incompatible lens is used, the AF assist function engages. This item replaces the MMF-1.
