M.Zuiko ED 9-18mm f4.0-5.6 at a Glance

Until now, super-wide-angle lenses tended to be big, heavy, and expensive, making it difficult for most camera users to take advantage of them. The ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6 promises to change all this. With its ultra compact and lightweight design and the outstanding portability, thanks to the DSA (Dual Super Aspherical) lens, available only with the Four Thirds System, this lens will make super-wide-angle photography friendlier and more affordable. Despite its compact size — it's just 49.5mm long and weighs a mere 155 grams — this lens boasts a long focusing range equivalent to 18-36 mm on a 35-mm camera lens.

    ALTERNATIVE TO EXPENSIVE ZOOM

    This lens is a great alternative to previous Ultra wide-angle zoom lens designs that have traditionally been very heavy…and very expensive. The Olympus 9-18 zoom is neither. This makes it a great addition to your camera bag. With 2x magnification, it captures the full panoramic beauty of both natural landscapes and man-made architecture – great for interior shots, as well as close-up portraits of friends and family. It just might become one of your favorite lenses.

    FLEXIBILITY WITH DSA

    The combination of two DSA, or Dual Sided Aspherical, lenses, and aspherical, ED and HR glass helps minimize distortion and aberration and delivers excellent image quality at whatever focal length you choose. This lock button you see on the side of the lens is depressed when you want to collapse it for storage.

    BAYONET CONNECTION LENS HOOD

    There is a bayonet connection lens hood available for this lens – and if you’re expecting to be doing a lot of outdoor shooting in bright conditions, the hood will really help prevent strong side or stray light from causing unwanted ghosting aberration. This lens does have a 52mm filter thread and readily accepts UV, Polarizer, or just plain old protective filters if you need them.

Perfect for everyday travel use.

Outstanding travel lens. My interest in photography is primarily cityscapes and street. I resisted temptation and purchased this 9-18mm rather than the bigger, heavier, and 2x more costly 7-14 Pro. It was totally the right decision for my purposes. So small and light; especially when attached to my em10 mark ii body. And results are outstanding. Great color, contrast, sharpness at iso200 for daylight shooting. Perfect travel companion.

Great little wide zoom

This is a great little wide zoom that fits the concept of m43 extremely well with its size and weight. It is great for landscape since it has a filter ring. Lens is sharpest at the wide end with corners a tad soft but tighten up when stopped down to f/5.6. The 18mm range is perfect to make this a one lens travel since it covers the coveted 35mm FOV to make for less need to swap lenses. Sadly, the aperture design renders poor sunstars else I would give it 5 stars.

Great lens

I like the lens at it collapsible and fairly compact (without the lens hood attached) I like to have the 52mm filter thread
Add this compact and lightweight M.Zuiko lens to your system so you can shoot like the Pros.
Add one of these popular accessories to your bag to extend the functions of your lenses and keep your gear safe. *Please note, this lens comes with a Lens Cap (LC-52C) and Lens Rear Cap (LR-2).
