ELECTRONIC ZOOM
The zoom functions on this lens are a marvel of advanced engineering. You can choose mechanical or electric zoom operation, and switch easily between the two using a moveable ring, which is also used to lock in macro mode. The linear motor drive that powers the zoom in electric mode is great for smooth dramatic zooming effects when you’re shooting video.

MOVIE & STILL COMPATIBLE MECHANISM
One of this lens’s most interesting features is the unique-to-Olympus Movie & Still Compatible mechanism, or MSC. This technology provides amazingly fast – and nearly silent – autofocus operation. You’ll really notice the benefit when you play back your HD video and the only thing you hear is the ambient background noise in the scene you were filming; what you won’t hear is the sound of the lens moving as it changes focus. This lens is perfect for tracking action.

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.
