Olympus 45mm f1.8 Interchangeable Lens for Olympus/Panasonic Micro Cameras
The 45mm f1.8 is a very fast, very light portrait lens that is compact in size and affordably priced. It's designed to excel in low-light conditions, deliver outstanding detail with shallow depth of field, and capture beautiful pro-level quality portraits.

Beautiful Bokeh
Photographers who shoot a lot of portraits and still-lives are always seeking good bokeh. Thanks to the large f1.8 aperture and relatively shallow depth of field, the 45mm is well suited to capture the combination of tack-sharp subjects and beautifully soft, defocused background effects that exemplifies bokeh.  

Pro-Level Portraits
This compact and light telephoto lens is the ideal focal length for perfect portraits. It's bright, f1.8 aperture offers superb low-light and shallow depth-of-field performance, allowing you to capture perfect, professional looking shots.

Movie-Still Compatible (MSC)
The linear drive motor found in the M.Zuiko 45mm f1.8 is Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) and provides fast, nearly silent focusing and aperture performance; a must-have for any videographer.

ZERO Coating
Adapted from multilayer film deposition technology used in Olympus' industry-leading line of precision microscopes, the Zuiko Extra-Low Reflective Optical Coating practically eliminates ghosts and flares caused by in-frame light sources. This feature in invaluable when shooting into the sun or other back-lit situations.

Bright f1.8 Aperture
A bright f1.8 aperture allows you to focus on getting the shot. Whether you're shooting in a dimly lit restaurant, or capturing a night-scene on city streets, you won't have to worry about having enough light.

Serious Hand-Held Performance
Paired with the serious in-body image stabilization of the Olympus OM-D or PEN-F cameras, this extremely bright f1.8 lens allows you to shoot longer hand-held exposures, which is especially handy for night-time photography.
