Olympus M.Zuiko 7-14mm f/2.8 PRO Lens

Shoot in Low Light

This Olympus Pro series lens makes it easy to shoot in low light conditions with an f/2.8 aperture. You won’t get unwanted blur in your images, as it can capture a lot of light at all focal lengths. Combine this lens with the OM-D E-M1 or E-M5 Mark II camera which is equipped with 5-axis image stabilisation to give you the best result in low-light handheld shooting.

High-Level Optical Performance

With a combination of Olympus lens elements, this Pro series lens has three super ED lenses, one ED lens, and two EDA lenses. These elements remove chromatic and comatic aberrations that tend to occur around the edges of images, particularly when shooting with a wide-angle lens. The result is amazing optical performance, crucial for those starry nights and for shooting in other unforgiving lighting conditions. You’ll have clear images that bring out next-level professionalism in your shots.

Anti-Reflection Coating

The Zuiko extra-low reflection optical (ZERO) coating thoroughly eliminates ghosting and flares to give your images a sharp finish. By refracting light, the coating balances colour and light that enters the lens to smooth out high transparency aberrations. Even under challenging conditions such as backlit situations, your images will still be clear without distractions.

Ideal for a Range of Settings

This Pro series lens covers a range of 14-28mm in 35mm equivalent, giving you the ability to shoot in a range of settings. It’s also constructed to be compact and lightweight, so it won’t weigh you down when you’re travelling or working. You’ll be able to take it with you anywhere and use it for a range of settings, which is great if you’re always on the move or already have a lot of gear to carry with you.

Dustproof, Splashproof and Freezeproof

This lens is dustproof, splashproof and even freezeproof, so you can take it out with you anywhere you go. From dry and dusty settings to humid and rainy situations to the middle of the Arctic, the lens will be fully protected with a weatherproof construction that won’t let you down. With hermetic sealing in eleven spots along the lens, it is protected against dust particles and water droplets.

FAQs

1. What cameras is the Olympus M.Zuiko 7-14mm f/2.8 PRO Lens compatible with?

It is designed for the Micro Four Thirds system, making it fully compatible with Olympus OM-D and PEN cameras, as well as Panasonic Lumix G-series bodies.

2. Is this lens good for astrophotography?

Yes, the ultra-wide 14-28mm equivalent field of view combined with the fast f/2.8 aperture and advanced ED elements makes it an excellent choice for capturing starry nights with minimal comatic aberration.

3. Does the lens have built-in image stabilisation?

The lens itself does not feature optical stabilisation, but it is designed to work seamlessly with Olympus' in-body 5-axis image stabilisation (such as on the OM-D E-M1 or E-M5 Mark II) for exceptional handheld low-light performance.

4. How weather-resistant is this lens?

It is highly durable, featuring 11 hermetic seals that make it dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof, perfect for challenging Australian environments.

5. Can I use standard screw-on filters with this lens?

Due to the protruding front element and built-in petal hood typical of ultra-wide lenses, standard screw-on filters cannot be attached directly. A specialised third-party filter holder system is required.

Care Instructions

• Keep the built-in lens hood clean and avoid touching the protruding front element.
• Wipe the lens body with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth after shooting in dusty or salty environments to maintain the integrity of the weather seals.
• Store the lens in a dry, cool place, preferably with silica gel packets to prevent fungal growth in humid conditions.
