45mm f/1.2 Portrait Prime
The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm f/1.2 PRO is a short telephoto prime built for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. Its f/1.2 aperture delivers a 90mm equivalent field of view with exceptional subject isolation and low-light capability. The optical design uses one ED and one aspherical element plus four high refractive index elements to minimise aberrations. Weather-sealed construction supports professional use in challenging conditions.
Portrait and Low-Light Specialists
This lens suits photographers who prioritise shallow depth of field and precise rendering for portraits, events, or creative work. The silent MSC autofocus and manual focus clutch benefit both stills and video capture. Buyers needing zoom versatility or wider angles for environmental scenes should consider different focal lengths. Those requiring larger format coverage must select lenses designed for other mounts.
Direct Mount with Filter Thread
Installation is a standard bayonet mount onto any Micro Four Thirds body with no adapters required. The 62mm front thread accepts the included filter kit directly. The internal focusing mechanism prevents the barrel from extending or rotating during AF, simplifying polariser use. The MF clutch ring allows instant manual override, though users unfamiliar with the mechanism may engage it accidentally.

Questions about this item
Does my Micro Four Thirds camera need a firmware update to use the 45mm f/1.2 PRO lens?
The lens uses the MSC High-Speed Imager AF System built for the Micro Four Thirds mount, so it works on current bodies without extra firmware steps.
Will my existing 62mm filters thread onto the front of this lens?
Yes, the lens accepts 62mm filters and the bundle includes a three-piece high-resolution filter kit that fits directly on the barrel.
How can I confirm the autofocus is operating silently as designed?
Engage AF on a subject and listen for near-silent operation; the internal focusing mechanism and MF clutch should produce no audible motor noise during focus acquisition.
