Zuiko Digital Lens Advantages

Digital Specific Lens™This pristine glass lens delivers light directly to

each of the imager’s pixels. From center to edge, each image is filled

with rich, accurate color, high contrast and subtle gradation.

Designed exclusively for digital photography, Zuiko Digital Lenses

provide a level of precision that’s unattainable from a digital body

using a traditional 35mm film lens.

Ready for Every Moment Perfectly matched with the E-system’s SLR

bodies’ Four Thirds image sensor, this lightweight 18-180mm Zuiko

The 18-180mm Zuiko Digital Zoom Lens is the one lens to have, when you can only carry one. The 36-360mm equivalent in 35mm photography range means you can shoot from wide to telephoto, with one lens.

All-Digital Lens offers the power and versatility of a 10x ultra zoom,

with a 18mm wide to 180mm telephoto. So whether you’re capturing a

wide group shot or “zooming in” on a football huddle, one lens can handle

it. The ED glass elements ensure outstanding sharpness and color.

Smart System To correct lens distortions, shading and exposure

information, this amazing lens has a built-in computer that

communicates directly with the camera’s software. This provides an

exceptional level of control and accuracy well beyond the capabilities

of a passive lens.

The Zuiko Digital ED 18-180mm ultra zoom lens is versatile. Realizing the advantages of the E-system, it delivers a wide distortion-free view and outstanding results from less than 18 inches away, or as far as its 10x telephoto will take you.
