  • solid, sealed casing, excellent image quality in the frame centre, good image quality on the edge of the frame up from the maximum relative aperture, moderate longitudinal chromatic aberration, low lateral chromatic aberration, sensible coma correction, s
  • very high distortion on RAW files, noticeable vignetting on RAW files, performance against bright light should have been better, Even though the cons list of the tested lens features as many as three positions, I still assess its performance very positive
  • The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12–45 mm f/4.0 PRO is a very well-put-together lens and an excellent addition to the system. If you buy a Micro 4/3 camera nowadays you are really spoilt for choice when it comes to standard zoom lenses. We don't like the st...

  • Extremely light and compact, Macro functionality, Fantastic weather sealing
  • No focus clutch / guide, No L-Fn button, No Sync-IS,
  • The Olympus M.Zuiko 12-45mm f/4 Pro is an interesting proposition. It's a smaller and more affordable version of the 12-40mm f/2.8 Pro, sacrificing speed and functionality in favor of compactness and macro capability. If you shoot in good light or with fl...

  • Excellente finition, Léger et compact, Bonne qualité d'image aux meilleures ouvertures, Autofocus réactif, Distorsions, aberrations et vignettage limités, Tropicalisation
  • Ouverture maximale de f/4 seulement, Plage d'utilisation réduite sur les meilleures ouvertures, Aucune option et aucun raccourci
  • Le M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm F4 PRO n'était pas forcément très attendu et se positionne comme un objectif original assis entre deux chaises. D'une part il flirte avec le bas de gamme à cause de son ouverture limitée et de son manque de raccourcis; par a...
