Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 75mm f/1.8 Lens (Black)
The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 75mm f/1.8 is a legendary portrait prime for the Micro Four Thirds system, offering a 150mm equivalent focal length. Known for its clinical sharpness and “compression,” this lens allows you to isolate subjects with ease. The bright f/1.8 aperture makes it a powerhouse for indoor sports, stage performances, and high-end portraiture, delivering a level of background blur and subject pop that is rarely seen in such a compact form factor.

Pro-Tier Optics & Rendering
Stunning Subject Isolation: The combination of a 150mm equivalent reach and a fast f/1.8 aperture provides incredible control over depth of field, creating a professional, three-dimensional look with a smooth, natural roll-off.

Advanced Glass Elements: The optical layout features three Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements and two High Refractive Index (HR) elements. These premium components work together to virtually eliminate color fringing and spherical aberrations, ensuring tack-sharp results even when shooting wide open.

ZERO Coating: Olympus’s Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical (ZERO) coating is applied to lens elements to minimize flare and ghosting, maintaining rich contrast and color accuracy in challenging backlit environments.

Nine-Blade Rounded Diaphragm: Produces beautiful, circular out-of-focus highlights and a creamy bokeh that is ideal for portraiture.

Fast & Quiet Operation
MSC (Movie & Still Compatible) AF: The high-speed autofocus system is designed to be nearly silent and incredibly smooth. This makes it an excellent choice for both candid street photography and video recording where focus noise can be a distraction.

All-Metal Construction: Despite its compact size, this lens features a robust, all-metal barrel and a high-precision focus ring that provides a premium tactile experience.

Condition & Cosmetic Notes
This lens has been a reliable workhorse and shows significant signs of professional use on the exterior:

Cosmetic Note: This is a well-used unit with numerous major scuffs and scratches on the focus ring and the main lens body. These marks are strictly cosmetic and reflect its history as a busy professional tool.

Functional & Optical Status: Despite the external wear, the glass elements remain clear and the MSC autofocus system is fully functional. It continues to deliver the elite image quality for which this lens is famous.
