Wide prime for Micro Four Thirds

The Opteka 28mm f/2.8 is a manual-focus prime lens built for Olympus Micro Four Thirds cameras. It uses a 6-element, 5-group optical design that includes one super-low dispersion element to control aberrations. A 9-blade diaphragm and HD anti-reflection coating help produce smooth backgrounds and strong contrast. The all-metal barrel and clickless aperture ring give precise tactile control.

Shooters who want full manual control

This lens suits photographers who prefer setting focus and aperture by hand for creative or video work. The 28mm focal length yields a 56mm equivalent field of view on Micro Four Thirds bodies, useful for street, travel and environmental portraits. Buyers who need autofocus or electronic aperture communication should look at alternatives that provide those functions.

Simple mount and shoot

Attaching the lens is a standard bayonet fit on any Micro Four Thirds body with no adapters required. The 49mm filter thread accepts common circular filters and the included vented hood shades the front element. Because focus and aperture are entirely manual, users must remember to set both rings before each shot; forgetting either is the most common cause of missed exposures.

Questions about this item

Which Olympus Micro Four Thirds bodies will mount this 28 mm f/2.8 lens?

Any Olympus Micro Four Thirds camera accepts the native MFT mount on this lens.

How does the 28 mm focal length compare with the 56 mm equivalent angle of view on my existing MFT body?

The 28 mm lens gives a 56 mm full-frame equivalent, so it frames like a normal lens on your Micro Four Thirds camera.

What visual cues confirm the aperture ring and focus are operating smoothly after I attach the lens?

The clickless aperture ring turns without detents from f/2.8 to f/22, and the manual focus ring moves freely through its full range.
