Olympus Zuiko 14-35mm F/2 Digital ED SWD Standard Zoom Lens for the Digital SLR Four Thirds Mounting System

About the Olympus 14-35mm

The ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 14-35mm f/2.0 SWD, which covers a zoom range equivalent to 28mm to 70mm on a 35mm camera lens is the world's first standard zoom lens to feature a large f/2.0 aperture. Boasting industry-leading imaging performance, this lens is a worthy addition to the Olympus Super High Grade (SHG) series of lenses. Together with the ED 7-14mm f/4.0, ED 35-100mm f/2.0 and ED 90-250mm f/2.8 lenses, this lens completes Olympus' series of professional zoom lenses with fixed F-values

The flagship of the ZUIKO DIGITAL series, this lens was developed to meet the requirements of the most demanding professionals. It includes reliable splash- and dust-proofing, Olympus' exclusive SWD-driven ultra-fast AF system, a mechanically interlocked manual focusing mechanism and a large, petal-shaped hood with a polarization filter control window.

With its unique f/2.0 aperture providing bright viewing with a sharp subject and a soft blurring of the background, this lens epitomizes the versatility, power and creative freedom made possible by the Four Thirds System and is ideal for almost any application - from landscapes and portraits to indoor shooting and photojournalism.

One reason why the Olympus 14-35mm is popular is because of its Fast / accurate auto-focus.
