PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
In 1982, Olympus redesigned their ZUIKO f/1.2 standard lense. An amazing feat is, the lense update enabled the fast lense shares a similar compact dimension with other ZUIKO lenses. Similarly, its weight also has reduced quite significantly to merely 285g. Besides, the lense also came with an OM-standard 49mm filter thread and enables it to accept a wide arrays of 49mm system accessories.
Although the updated optic was seemingly using a similar number of elements and lense groups but Olympus optical engineers managed to take advantage of this update to ensure optically, it improves greatly from the predecessor. Contrast and various aberrations that would affect image quality common to lenses with such large aperture have been extremely well corrected. Although disappointedly, the lense was not equipped with a floating lens elements design, but this lense is still able to deliver crisp and sharp images across its entire focusing range, which includes when working at its close focusing distances. In a good OM tradition, this superbly crafted 50mm lense exhibits a very high built quality which justifies to have its top optical quality well supplemented.
Similar to the previous G-ZUIKO AUTO-S 55mm f/1.2, this lense was specifically being designed to handle low available light photography. Critical selection of optical glass type of high refractive index and low dispersion optical properties was used throughout. With additional multi-layers coatings applied on each lense elements to improve the spectral transmission factor, faithful colour rendition and reduced presence of ghost images which commonly arise in demanding undesirable available light photography. This beautifully made ZUIKO lense is highly corrected to ensure common aberrations be kept at absolute minimal level. Despite the fast lense speed, good contrast and high resolving power shows no edge fall in the picture, makes it an ideal lense for shooting interiors, and general low light situations. This lense is still a current model.
