Compact all-purpose zoom
The 12-45mm f4 PRO offers a constant-aperture zoom range equivalent to 24-90mm, balancing wide-angle coverage and short telephoto reach. The fixed f4 aperture enables consistent performance while helping to keep the lens lightweight at just 254g and under 7cm in length, making it suitable for everyday carry and compact rigs.
High-performance optics
Designed for clarity and colour accuracy, the lens features 12 elements in 9 groups, including two aspherical lenses, a DSA element, two ED elements, and three HR-type elements. Together, these suppress spherical aberration, distortion, and colour fringing across the zoom range.

FAQs
Does the M.Zuiko 12–45mm f4 PRO include image stabilisation?
No, the lens itself does not include optical image stabilisation. However, it pairs well with Olympus and OM SYSTEM camera bodies that offer in-body image stabilisation (IBIS), allowing for stable shooting in various conditions.
What kind of close-up performance can I expect?
With a minimum focus distance of 12 cm at the wide end and 23 cm at the telephoto end, the lens offers up to 0.25x magnification (1:4). This makes it well-suited for detail shots, food photography, or capturing small subjects without requiring a dedicated macro lens.
Is this lens compatible with all Micro Four Thirds cameras?
Yes, the lens is fully compatible with any Micro Four Thirds mount camera. It delivers a 24-90mm equivalent field of view when mounted, making it suitable for landscapes, street photography, portraits, and more.
How does the ZERO coating benefit image quality?
The Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical (ZERO) coating suppresses internal reflections that cause ghosting and flare. This feature ensures high contrast and colour fidelity even when shooting in backlit or high-intensity lighting environments.

Buy now pay later
The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
