Versatile zoom for Micro Four Thirds

The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II lens covers a 24-80mm equivalent focal range with a constant f/2.8 aperture. It serves photographers and video creators who need wide-angle to portrait perspectives in a single, weather-sealed optic. The compact design suits travel and everyday shooting where changing lenses is impractical.

Bundle adds protection and support

A three-piece filter kit shields the front element and enables creative effects, while a flexible tripod stabilises the camera for long exposures or self-recording. A cap keeper prevents lost lens caps during fast workflows, and a full cleaning kit maintains optical clarity by removing dust, oils and moisture from the fluorine-coated glass.

Ideal for hybrid shooters needing range

This kit suits content creators who want one lens for landscapes, interiors and portraits with reliable autofocus for video. Buyers who require longer telephoto reach, wider apertures for extreme low light, or full-frame coverage should look at other systems.

Questions about this item

Will the fluorine coating on the front element of the M.Zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II need reapplication over time?

The fluorine coating is a permanent surface treatment that repels dust, moisture and oils; it does not wear off under normal use and requires no reapplication.

What limits continuous shooting with the constant f/2.8 aperture on this lens?

The aperture stays at f/2.8 throughout the 12-40mm zoom range, so exposure remains consistent; the practical limit is the camera body's buffer or heat management, not the lens iris.

How much heat does the MSC autofocus motor generate during all-day video recording with this lens?

The MSC focusing system is designed for quiet, low-power operation and does not produce noticeable heat even during extended video sessions.
