According to our camera lens expert
The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 Pro is an all-round zoom lens for professional photographers. You use the lens with a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera. Thanks to the large zoom range, the lens is suitable for portrait and landscape photography and recording video, among other things. The wide fixed aperture of f/2.8 lets you take sharp photos in all light conditions. Your subject really stands out from the background over the entire zoom range. The lens is Movie and Still Compatible, so the autofocus is fast and noiseless. Via the Manual Focus Clutch button, you can quickly switch between manual focus and autofocus. The built-in aspheric elements prevent image distortion. This lens is dust and waterproof, so you can use it in all weather conditions.

A solidly built bright professional tool. Together with 40-100 mm it forms a professional segment of the Olympus brand. Even the marking on the lens is engraved which speaks for itself about the high quality of its heavy body. Photos are very sharp, even at the maximum open aperture f/2.8, even at the edges. Natural but rich colors and beautiful and soft bokhe. Autofocus is very fast, even in low light, which works perfectly. Have noticed that the built-in aspherical elements counteract image distortions very well. Despite the fact that the lens changes in length, you will not get any dust inside because this lens is dust and waterproof. With its lens, all photo assignments can be easily performed from landscape photo to portrait. In combination with any camera from Olympus 14-40 mm f/2.8 PRO lies well and firmly in the hands and looks good. Highly recommended for any photographer.
