Weathersealed, compact and fast — these new prime lenses are built to accompany every creative journey. From wide 17mm to versatile 25mm, they're your go-to companions for capturing stunning visuals and soft, beautiful background bokeh.

Tell a sweeping story with the wide-angle 17mm. Perfect for street, landscapes, and lifestyle shots.
The aperture pulls in a flood of light. Shoot in dim environments without cranking up the ISO. And that background? Soft, buttery, and cinematic.
This 17mm lens is splashproof and dustproof, so you can brave the elements without hesitation.

This lens has two aspherical elements. Capture tack-sharp details from edge to edge every single shot, every single time.
Plastic? Never heard of it. These lenses come wrapped in a durable metal body, giving you that satisfying, high-end feel.

The 17mm f1.8 II includes a Dual Super Aspherical lens, a High Refractive lens, and two aspherical elements, all coated with Olympus' ZERO coating to banish ghosting and flare.
