OM 12-40mm F/2.8 PRO II Lens Review: “extraordinary degree of sharpness”

Share

ePhotozine tested the OM 12-40mm lens and concluded:

There is little sign here that the smaller MFT format is causing much in the way of diffraction issues with this lens. Sharpness is maintained throughout the aperture range and also throughout the focal length range, to an extraordinary degree. There have been many claims in the past that zoom lenses perform as well as any primes within their range, and in this case that is definitely true.

The cost of this is a slightly higher price and an increase in bulk, but the latter point may be moot as the lens is not particularly heavy anyway. We really see the benefits of the compact nature of the MFT format here. It is just possible that some might choose the more compact 12-45mm f/4 option and save £300 in the process, but then again we have to set this against the more expensive lens that has a truly outstanding performance level.

It can definitely be Highly Recommended.

OM Digital and Lumix rumor recap: The relaunch of mid level cameras?

Share

Panasonic made it very clear that a new Lumix MFT camera is coming soon. And also OM Digital might announce “something” in June. So let’s recap what to expect

  1. Yosuke Yamane manager CEO hints that the first Lumix MFT camera with phase detection might be announced soon (article here). This might be some sort of G9II camera with phase detection AF as Yamane also hinted at possible new more “affordable” MFT cameras.
  2. There is also a wild rumor about a sort of GH6II. Basically  a GH6 with same sensor resolution but with phase detection pixels on it.
  3. OM Digital might announce a new product in June. Not sure if this is a lens or a camera (article here).
  4. It’s highly likely we might get a new OM-10 camera sometimes in 2023
  5. Still unclear if the PEN line will continue yet…

So far I have not gotten any new rumor about possible lenses. But I guess launching new cameras is the real priority now.
