Features
The most compact* 3x electronic pancake zoom lens with amazing portability
The thickness of the lens is less than half compared to conventional lenses (22.5mm when power is OFF). It weighs only 93g and is very portable.

Zuiko image quality
It contains quality lens elements including 3 aspherical lens elements, super HD element and ED element to provide clear, sharp image from the centre to the edges without aberrations.
Maximum image magnification of 0.23x (35mm equivalent maximum image magnification: 0.46x)
The closest focusing distance is 20cm at the wide end and 25cm at the tele end. Because of that, a maximum image magnification of 0.23x (35mm equivalent maximum image magnification: 0.46x) has been achieved. It is the greatest image magnification of a standard zoom lens. The optional macro converter (MCON-P02) changes the maximum image magnification to 0.38x (35mm equivalent maximum image magnification: 0.76x). It turns the lens into a semi macro lens.

Thoroughly pursued usability
The fully rotating focus ring is comfortable to operate, just like a normal interchangeable lens. The zooming speed can be switched in two steps according to the rotation angle of the zoom ring. You can slowly change the angle of view when you have time, and can also quickly zoom when you don't want to miss a shot.
