The “folk portrait” for Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless cameras with the model name M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm f / 1.8 is one of the first-born of the Micro 4/3 system, which is still relevant today.

Much in everything

With a high aperture of f/1.8 and a long focal length (90mm in 35mm film equivalent), the prime blurs the background well and draws a soft creamy "bokeh". Moreover, the minimum focus distance of the model is 50 cm, which does not limit the scope of the lens to portraits only. He is also equally good at close-up and subject photography.

Compact form factor

The length of the lens turned out to be less than a matchbox (46 mm), and the “glass” weighs some miserable 116 g. Nevertheless, the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm f/1. and in conjunction with large-caliber Olympus mirrorless cameras of the OM-D line. In addition, the model is distinguished by high build quality — the plastic body of the lens is easy to confuse with a metal one, although such is a purely bayonet mount.

Price quality

The fix gives excellent sharpness to the centre in the centre of the frame from the widest aperture (f / 1.8). However when shooting with an open aperture, images are often accompanied by visible chromatic aberrations at the boundaries of high-contrast transitions. It is easy to overcome them in a photo editor, and HA can be opposed by the fact that the lens perfectly holds backlight. When shooting on it, you can do without a hood, which is not in the standard configuration. The bottom line is that the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 45mm f/1.8 has the best price/quality ratio among its colleagues in the portrait workshop and deserves to join the ranks of mirrorless optics for owners of Micro 4/3 cameras.
