Olympus's PRO ultra-fast wide prime — 34mm equiv at f/1.2 with weather sealing for MFT.
The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 17mm f/1.2 PRO launched in 2017 as a premium ultra-fast wide prime for MFT, providing 34mm equivalent at f/1.2. The PRO designation means weather sealing, freeze-proofing, and Olympus's finest optical quality.
Optically outstanding — one of the sharpest MFT lenses at any aperture. The f/1.2 on MFT provides approximately equivalent DOF to f/2.4 on full-frame — meaningful subject separation. Beautiful bokeh rendering. Fast and quiet MSC AF motor.
Micro Four Thirds mount with 62mm filter thread. Weighs 390g — substantial for MFT. Full weather sealing and freeze-proofing to -10°C. Minimum focus distance 20cm. L-Fn customisable button. Manual focus clutch ring.
Available used at professional prices. The f/1.2 PRO trio (17mm, 25mm, 45mm) represents MFT's finest optical achievement. The 17mm is the widest of the three — excellent for environmental portraits and street. For MFT photographers wanting the absolute best wide prime.
