Compact Zoom for Micro Four Thirds
The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm f/4 PRO is a constant-aperture zoom covering a 12-45mm focal range with a 24-90mm equivalent field of view. It suits photographers who want a single weathersealed lens for landscapes, portraits and everyday carry on Micro Four Thirds bodies. The 7-blade circular diaphragm produces natural background blurring at the F4 maximum aperture.
Simple Mount with Weather Seals
The lens attaches via the standard Micro Four Thirds bayonet and adds nine seals rated to IPX1 for dust, splash and freezeproof protection. No electronic calibration or firmware step is required; it communicates aperture and focus data automatically. The 58mm filter thread accepts the supplied LC-58F cap and LH-61G hood. Tele-converters MC-14 and MC-20 are not compatible, so reach cannot be extended optically.
Check Body Compatibility and Close-Focus Needs
Verify that your camera uses the Micro Four Thirds mount and supports lens-based image stabilisation, because this model does not operate with 5-axis Sync IS. The closest focusing distance is 0.12m, delivering 0.25x magnification on Micro Four Thirds and 0.5x in 35mm terms across the entire zoom range. If you require closer reproduction ratios or tele-converter support, this lens will not meet those needs.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the lens is performing correctly after mounting it on my Micro Four Thirds body?
Check that the aperture stays at f/4 across the 12–45mm range, that focus reaches the 0.12 m close-focus distance, and that images show the 84–27° angle of view with smooth bokeh from the 7-blade circular diaphragm.
Which accessories are included and which must be purchased separately?
The box contains the M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm f/4 PRO lens, LC-58F front cap and LH-61G hood; no tele-converters are compatible, so MC-14 or MC-20 are not needed.
Is there more than one version or capacity of this lens to choose from?
The product is offered only as the single 12–45mm f/4 PRO configuration (MPN V335160BW000); no alternative focal-length ranges or aperture variants exist for this model.
