Olympus 25mm f/2.8 Zuiko Lens

The Zuiko Digital 25mm f2.8 is a thin, lightweight single-focus standard pancake-type lens. The lens has an overall length of 23.5 mm. When combined with E-410 or E-420, the total length including the camera body and lens is only 76.5 mm. The result is an easy-to-store, easy-to-carry camera system with go-anywhere portability.

With a focal distance equivalent to 50 mm on a 35 mm film camera lens, this standard pancake-type lens provides an image angle very close to that of the naked eye. The result is a near-natural visual field that makes this an ideal standard lens for daily use, whether for simple snapshots or for more sophisticated portrait and landscape shooting.

Thin, lightweight pancake-type lens with an overall length of 23.5 mm and weight of 95 grams

Mastery of the latest optical design technology has resulted in a thin, lightweight pancake-type lens with an overall length of only 23.5 millimetres and weight of 95 grams. When this lens is mounted on the e E-410 or  E-420 digital SLR camera, the total length of the camera body and lens is still only 76.5 mm. The result is a camera system that is easy to store and easy to carry, offering go-anywhere portability. With its compact, lightweight design, this highly portable lens is ideal for daily use, perfect for a wide range of photographic opportunities from snapshots to portrait and landscape shooting.

Digital-dedicated, high-image-quality design

The focal distance is equivalent to 50 mm on a 35 mm camera lens. Double-sided aspherical lens components are employed to reduce the lens length and provide optimal aberration correction, achieving a sharp, clear image just like a single-focus lens. A specially formulated lens coating optimized for shooting against light minimizes ghosts and flares. With a high open aperture f-value of 2.8 and a circular aperture diaphragm, this lens lets you create beautiful soft-focus images and take advantage of natural defocusing effects.

Excellent close-up shooting capability

Close-up shooting is possible at a minimum distance of 13 centimeters from the front of the lens. The possibility of positive challenge to the shooting subject will expand the field of photography.

Screw-on aluminium lens cap, and lens hood (optional)

The lens cap is made of aluminium and screws onto the lens. This ensures a sleek, streamlined exterior appearance.
Made of sleek, polished aluminium, the optional LH-43 Lens Hood allows you to attach the LC-34 Lens Hood Cap (included in the Lens Hood) or a 34-mm-diameter commercially available filter without spoiling the camera's slim, stylish appearance.

A little about Macro Lenses

Macro lenses are important to photographers who tend to shoot close-ups. That’s because, although they’re quite similar to standard lenses in most ways, macro lenses are engineered to focus at much shorter distances. Most often used in nature photography, these lenses magnify small objects like insects and flowers and captures immense detail and clarity. Other applications of a macro lens are in scientific photography and product photography. You’ll find that macro lenses can also act as a standard lens.

These lenses tend to have a higher f-stop number (which allows in less light) and therefore are not always ideal in low lighting situations. For subjects that are sensitive to movement (insects and animals, for example), macro lenses with longer focal lengths can be used.
