The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-50mm f/3.5-6.3 EZ is a masterfully versatile "do-it-all" lens designed for the Micro Four Thirds system. Featuring an innovative Electromagnetic Zoom (EZ) mechanism, it allows for silent, smooth zooming—perfect for high-end cinematography—alongside a traditional manual zoom mode. This lens is celebrated for its dedicated Macro mode, providing an impressive 0.36x magnification (0.72x full-frame equivalent) at a fixed 43mm focal length. With its dust- and splash-proof construction and a broad 24-100mm equivalent range, this lens provides the mechanical soul and digital precision required for everything from wide-angle landscapes to intimate close-ups in challenging environments.

Key Features

• Versatile 4.2x zoom range (24-100mm equivalent) covering wide-angle to telephoto

• Variable aperture of f/3.5 (Wide) to f/6.3 (Tele)

• Advanced Electronic Zoom (EZ) mechanism for smooth, silent zooming in video

• Dedicated Macro Mode with a minimum focusing distance of just 20cm

• Weather-sealed construction (dust and splash-proof) for professional field reliability

• L-Fn (Lens Function) programmable button to temporarily suspend autofocus

Introductory Paragraph The Olympus 12-50mm EZ is the definitive choice for the photographer who needs a single, lightweight lens that can handle any situation. This specific unit (S/N: ABN204447) is a standout because of its "Like New" preservation and unique three-position "clutch" zoom ring, which allows you to switch instantly between manual zoom, power zoom, and macro shooting. Unlike standard kit lenses, it features the same level of environmental sealing as Olympus's professional "High Grade" glass. Because it starts at a 12mm (24mm equivalent) wide-angle, it is significantly more useful for architecture and group shots than common 14mm alternatives. Whether you are filming a travel vlog or capturing detailed nature macros, this lens provides the optical brilliance and mechanical versatility that made it a legend in the M.Zuiko lineup.

Condition Report Like new condition. The lens barrel (S/N: ABN204447) is in pristine aesthetic state with no visible signs of wear. The glass is flawless; optically clear and free from fungus, haze, or scratches. The unique clutch zoom mechanism is firm and perfectly responsive, and the electromagnetic zoom functions perfectly for video. The weather-sealing gaskets are intact and the autofocus is silent and rapid.

Specialist Note "The 12-50mm EZ is arguably the most underrated lens in the Micro Four Thirds catalog. What I love about this unit is its 'Swiss Army Knife' nature—the macro mode is surprisingly capable and sharp enough for professional-looking product or nature shots. The electronic zoom is a dream for video because it eliminates the 'shake' you often get when manually zooming. It’s a rugged, honest piece of Japanese engineering that is essential for a lightweight travel kit. Finding one in this 'Like New' condition is a rare opportunity for a lens built to tackle the elements."
