    EXQUISITE DETAILS

    Macro photography is an art form in itself. It reveals a world that often goes unnoticed and creates images with power and grace. The M.Zuiko 30mm Macro features a close focusing capability and strong magnification, making it ideal for shooting close-ups of a water drop hitting a puddle, a colorful leaf, or the details on a piece of old machinery. If you’re shooting a shiny object, a blacked out front minimizes reflection helping to reduce time-consuming post work.

    SUPERIOR OPTICS

    The M.Zuiko 30mm Macro is made to precise standards to produce images that are clear, crisp and rich in detail. This superb macro lens features 7 lens elements in 6 groups including aspherical extra low dispersion and dual super ashperical elements to give you unmatched optical performance. The 2.5x maximum magnification (35mm equivalent) and close 14mm working distance get you closer to your subject than ever before. The lens is perfect for capturing images with artistic out-of-focus backgrounds. The circular aperture helps create beautiful bokeh for stunning defocused effects.

    FAST AF

    The M.Zuiko 30mm Macro features a single lightweight focusing element for lighting fast AF performance. This allows for 20 to 30% faster focusing than any other lens in its class.* With all that speed on your side, you’ll never worry about missing a shot again. Plus, the MSC (movie and still compatible) mechanism provides for silent autofocus and aperture operation.

    *Based on Olympus internal testing as of March 2016.

    BIG PERFORMANCE

    It’s compact enough to fit in your pocket or purse. It weighs a scant 4.5 ounces and perfectly complements the slim, sleek profile of Olympus OM-D and PEN interchangeable lens cameras. The M.Zuiko 30mm Macro travels well and goes everywhere with ease. It’s also versatile. Besides taking superior macro shots, it’s an ideal portrait lens and even works well for everyday snapshots.

This lens is fully compatible with focus bracketing modes on select Olympus OM-D and PEN cameras allowing you to create artistic macro photographs with large depths of field.

An outstanding optic

I've always had a macro lens in my camera bag. When I purchased my Pen F it was a question of which M Zuiko macro? The 60mm has very tempting features but the 30mm provides 1:1.25 magnification and getting close is what it's all about. <br />Sharpness is outstanding. Build quality is excellent. While the 60mm may still end up in my kit I'm delighted to have purchased this lens first. <br />Macro photography opens the door to an amazing world. The M Zuiko 30mm is an excellent way to start that adventure.

Good value, great quality!

This is my first macro lens. In addition to that, I'm a newbie in the whole area of serious digital photography. From what I can tell so far, this lens is typical M.Zuiko quality...which is to say, "It's great!" I like its weight and its sharpness. It will take me a while to grow into its capability.
