Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 45mm F1.8

The M.Zuiko Digital 45mm 1:1.8 is a tiny, lightweight short telephoto for Micro Four Thirds cameras. Optically it’s superb, even at maximum aperture, and autofocus is extremely fast and near-silent. Its 90mm equivalent focal length makes it ideal for photographing people, and its F1.8 maximum aperture is useful for blurring backgrounds and indoor available-light shooting. On top of all this, it looks good too - packaged in a compact body with a subtle metal-like exterior and complete with interchangeable decoration rings to match the colour of different PEN cameras.
