Pros: Professional optics in every sense, a valid project from the outset, in fact, taken up by OM for the second version.

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: As I wrote, a valid project from the beginning, in fact taken up by OM for the second version, which optically has practically no difference with the previous one, I had both, never a problem great satisfaction in the rendering of the images, sharp, almost perfect. The value of second-hand! Perhaps it is the only drawback, inexorably devalued.

Pros: In some ways it's "the perfect lens". It excels in every aspect. Impeccable.

Cons: Nobody. I would say "that only stops at 80 equivalents", I'm used to larger zooms, but that's not a flaw.

Opinion: Lens completely free of defects and equipped with every possible value. Professional build quality. Flawless results, every time you open it, in every situation, across the entire frame. The only possible bad result is due to the photographer's error. The stabilization of cameras like the OM-1 (where it is supplied as a kit) makes it absolutely versatile, since you can shoot without problems even at 1/2 (if not even a full second) handheld (and even at 80 mm equivalent). Value for money at the highest possible benefit levels. I don't think you can get a lens of this quality at a lower price than what you can find it at. Rating : 10 full, like 13 other users before me, I think it's a lens where it's practically impossible to disagree.

Pros: Overall quality

Cons: I can't think of any... except that, those who buy it new today, should take advantage of it and keep it for a very long time... otherwise it loses a lot of money due to the criminal and senseless loss of value that is massacring the micro 4/3 system, especially OMSYSTEM

Opinion: In the past I have always "avoided" buying this lens as I thought it was too limited in terms of focal range... but I was very wrong. It is a perfect lens for professional use, it always makes you take home work and even at an amateur level it is used great. It is very sharp at all focal lengths, the autofocus is very fast and precise. It goes very well with all the in-room functions of the OM1 (filters... High res... etc...)

Pros: Quality professional optics with impeccable, robust and waterproof construction

Cons: nobody

Opinion: A lens of the highest build quality, it represents the II version marked OM System of the glorious 12-40 f/2.8 Olympus. The only difference of the 12-40 PRO II compared to the first series is the waterproofness with weather resistance by IP53 certification. Although the optical scheme is identical to the first version (2013 project), the PRO II (2021 project) returns an image improvement but almost imperceptible (I also had the first series and I did not notice major differences). A lens released in combination with the new OM-1 and the results I obtained on the OM-1, is probably designed specifically for the new camera and for the subsequent marked OM System. In conclusion, for those who want to save the first version (2013) of the 12-40 f / 2.8 in the used market is at affordable prices, for those who want to keep up with the times and have the new 12-40 PRO II marked OM System can find those sold by kits with excellent discounts. The choice is yours...
