Zuiko Digital lenses

The unique Four Thirds System makes available some interesting lens options. Compared to a full frame digital or 35mm camera, the Four Thirds System offers twice the reach at the same focal length. So a 50mm Four Thirds lens is like a 100mm lens on a 35mm film camera. The following are Olympus’s own Zuiko Digital lenses; all but the last employ Olympus’s latest Supersonic Wave Drive (SWD) technology for fastest auto focus. Note the 35mm/full frame equivalent range in parentheses:

* Olympus Zuiko Digital ED 12-60mm (24-120mm equivalent) f/2.8-4.0 SWD
* Olympus Zuiko Digital ED 14-35mm (28-70mm) f/2.0 SWD (Olympus claims this is the world’s first continuous f/2 zoom.)
* Olympus Zuiko Digital ED 50-200mm (100-400mm) f/2.8-3.5 SWD
* Olympus Zuiko Digital ED 70-300mm (140-600mm) f/1:4.0-5.6

We will provide more details about the lenses later or you can read more specification here Zuiko Digital Lenses
