What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Amount of details just unbeatable! Lightweight in keeping with olympus m43 system. Weather sealing. Very lightweight and easy to use.
The 1:1 magnification ratio is the gold standard when it comes to macro lenses. It's both dust proof and splash proof and it doubles as an excellent portrait lens and medium telephoto one too. The technique involved to get good macro requires some pra... Read More

Highlights
Quality
This lens is really sharp, gives you brilliant images without noise and it can be used all around not just for macro!

Price

Shipping

Competitiveness
This lens fits in between olympus consumer and pro lenses.

Or use manual focus alongside the focus peaking option

Not only that the large ribbed flybywire focus ring is comfortable to use and precise but to go from infinity to the closest distance does require a lot of turns hence the limiter

Unusually the distance scale is vertical instead of the usual horizontal type
