Pit M43 is a very accidental thing. I originally used the Pentax KS2 well, but I have never used a large aperture lens. At most, only Pentax's F1.8 was used. At this time on the Internet to see a optical 25mm F0.95 large aperture lens, as long as 2400! All of a sudden, we planted grass.

However, this is a lens of the M43 interface, so I received an Olympus EP5 body into the pit M43 friends. There is still no M43 lens on hand, so I first bought a M43 to PK adapter ring to transfer the Pentax lens on hand.

After the transfer of the Pentax lens, with the EP5 fuselage zoom function, the effect is still satisfactory. However, it may be the reason for the adapter ring.
Just when Aunt Zhang pushed Olympus this lens. Nichia supports direct mail and the price is cheaper than that of salted fish
As a rational consumer, of course, you can't just see cheaper prices on the cheap, or you have to go online to see the introduction
Olympus M.ZD ED 12-50/3.5-6.3 EZ related parameters
Equivalent focal length 24-100mm, 24mm at the wide-angle end is barely accustomed to catching an extra wide edge, +1 point. The maximum magnification is 0.72. Many lenses with a magnification of only 0.5 are known as the macro head, +1 point. What else is there in the power zoom, dustproof, internal zoom in the internal focus, +1+1+1. . . All these add up to less than 900! Decisively buy buy buy!
Out of the box The direct mail in Japan is very convenient now, especially now it supports the Chinese interface. As long as there is a credit card, the sea is almost as good as shopping in China. The order was placed on July 20, and it was handed on July 29. Open the box directly.
Nichia's packaging is still quite reliable, and the entire packaging is perfect.
Freshly shot fresh lenses with protective film on top. The paper on the back of the paper is a joint guarantee letter from the International Association. It does not know whether to enjoy it at home or not.
Remove the protective film, as the M43 lens, although the diameter is not large, but the length is still very long
One of the lens selling points, the closest focusing distance of 0.2m in macro mode. This is very convenient when taking pictures of daily food. It does not mean that you want to take a close-up shot, but the camera cannot cope with it.
Beautiful front and rear lenses, clean and transparent
Pull out my EP5 and prepare for a fit
amount. . This is a bit too thick, and it's nice and small M43
usePentax lenses are usually used to plug and play, at most there is an AF / MF switch, but suddenly get a little bit of force after this lens is obtained
What are the 2 buttons here? MACRO understands that it should be a macro switch. What is the ghost of this L-Fn?
The mark in this small window is what it means. .
Or look through the manual first, I did not expect to use the lens will also use the instructions
After reading the instructions, it finally became clear.
In the E-ZOOM mode , the lens enters the power zoom mode. At this time, the zoom mode is similar to the card machine. The zoom ring cannot be rotated, only a small angle, and the lens remains zoomed while holding it.
In the M-ZOOM mode , the lens enters the manual zoom mode. At this time, the zoom mode is similar to the SLR. The zoom ring can be rotated and how much it will zoom.
MACRO is the macro mode, you need to press the side of the MACRO button to switch to this mode. At this time the focal length is fixed to 43mm, and the maximum aperture is F6.
As for the L-Fn button , after pressing and holding, half-pressing the shutter is no longer auto-focusing. . .
Let's take a picture, MACRO mode needs to hold the MACRO button to switch
SamplesAs a lens, of course, you can't miss the sample. But Chengdu was really hot during this time. It was true love that could withstand the sunrise. In addition, after the G20, the weather in Chengdu plummeted. There was no good weather in the Xiling Snow Mountain in the past few weeks. The following figure is JPG straight out and only adjusts the size.
Let's start with a few macros
50mm F6.3, this is the closest focusing distance in normal mode
43mm F6, the lens focal length will be fixed to 43mm in macro mode, you can see the macro mode can be closer
All of the above are full aperture, normal mode and macro mode. Photographs of sun drying are really suitable
12mm F3.5, the equivalent 24mm barely catches the wide side. You can see there are obvious dark corners.
50mm F6.3, compared to 12mm, shooting close-up pretty stubborn.
12mm F3.5, distortion is still more serious, the middle of the line is straight, the lines on the edge will collapse.
50mm F6.3, this uses the EP5 body to deal with the next, the color is not so flat.
advantage
Equivalent 24-100mm, practical focal length. With macro mode, it is convenient for daily use. Internal focus zoom, dust, and excellent workmanship. The weight of 200g is light and lightweight. The above functions add up to less than 900, cost-effective!
Shortcomings
The aperture is too small, destined to only be a sun head. The lens is too long and does not reflect the advantages of the M43. The quality of imaging is generally fair and it can only be said that it is worth the price.
Thanks for watching.
