Olympus Slr & Dslr Lenses | Olympus Zuiko 50Mm F/1.8 Manual Focus Lens For Om-Mount {49}

The Olympus Zuiko 50Mm F/1.8 Is A Manual Focus Normal Lens For The World Famous Olympus Om System. It’S Useable On Om-Mount 35Mm Film Slr (Single Lens Reflex) Cameras And Accessories Like Om-Mount Lens Adapters Or Extension Tubes. Olympus’ Zuiko Lenses Are Revered For Being Superb Optics Executed With High Quality Glass And Coatings.

The Lens Produces A 47° (Diagonal) Angle Of View; It’S Is Often Referred To As A ‘Normal’ Lens Because The Field Of View Roughly Matches A Human Eye And Is Not Considered Wide Angle Or Telephoto But Rather In-Between.

A 50Mm F/1.8 Is An Especially Good Choice For Anyone Learning Photography. The F/1.8 Aperture Allows Experimentation With Shallower Depth Of Field And Shooting In Lower Lighting. The Fixed Focal Length Forces A Photographer To Think More Concretely About The Compositional And Perspective Effects Of Physically Moving The Camera Rather Than Complacently Relying On A Zoom Mechanism To Change Framing. It’S Also An Especially Affordable Way For A Photographer To Experience The Level Of Sharpness And Contrast Possible From Higher End Lenses.

Photographers Or Collectors Seeking A Slightly Brighter And More Premium Optic May Also Want To Consider The Olympus Zuiko 50Mm F/1.4.
