650 Euro kostet das M-Zuiko 2/12 mm. Es ist bereits recht lange im Markt, doch als Weitwinkeloptik bleibt es ein guter Kauf. Offen liegen Auflösung und Kontrast in der Bildmitte auf gutem Niveau. Der Randabfall der Auflösung passt, beim Kontrast sollte er geringer sein. Unsere Messung bei Blende 4 liefert für die Bildmitte bereits sehr gute Messwerte...

Product details
A classic design, a robust metal housing, and excellent optical properties are the hallmarks of the powerful M.Zuiko Digital ED 12 mm 1:2.0 (equivalent to 24 mm on a 35mm camera). With its focal length of 24 mm and a brightness of 1:2.0, it is ideal for low-light conditions when a flash or tripod is not available, as well as for landscapes and indoor shots from short distances.
You can switch from AF to manual focus directly on the lens ring, and the depth of field can be read, making it perfect for snapshots. The high-quality multi-coating (ZERO - ZUIKO Extra-low Reflection Optical) of the lenses and a DSA (Dual Super-Aspherical) element ensure high image quality. The wide-angle lens is now available in black as standard, along with the LH-48 lens hood.

- keine Gegenlichtblende im Lieferumfang
Das 12-Millimeter-F2.0-Objektiv von Olympus überzeugt mit exzellenter Abbildungsleistung und hervorragendem Design. Straßenfotografen, die viel manuell fokussieren, dürften an dieser Festbrennweite kaum vorbeikommen. Angesichts der hohen Anschaffungskosten hätten wir allerdings eine Gegenlichtblende im Lieferumfang erwartet.

Alles in allem bietet das M.Zuiko Digital 2/12 mm MD mit seinem sehr schönen, soliden Gehäuse eine sehr gute Leistung und auch Blende 2 ist gut einsetzbar. Aber wieso fehlt eigentlich eine Streulichtblende?
