With a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 150mm, the Olympus M. Zuiko 75mm f1.8 lens is well suited for shooting studio portraits and capturing all the action at an indoors sports event or school play. Organized in nine groups, its 10 elements include three ED lenses and two HR lenses, and its large f1.8 maximum aperture ensures clarity, even in low-light conditions. Plus, Olympus’s ZERO coating technology eliminates virtually all ghosting and flare. The result is tack-sharp shots with beautifully soft, defocused backgrounds. And because the Movie & Still Compatible (or MSC) mechanism makes for incredibly fast, nearly silent operation, all you’ll hear in the background of your videos is ambient noise.
