Packing a high-performance 6-element optical configuration (indicated by the \"F\" in F.Zuiko) into an incredibly miniature, jewelry-like housing, this lens acts as a standard focal length with a perspective field roughly equivalent to a 55mm lens on full-frame format.

Yoshihisa Maitani wanted the half-frame system to be pocketable, and this lens is the perfect realization of that vision. It is tiny, but because it only has to illuminate a half-frame image circle, the optical formulas are incredibly sharp right from f\/1.8 with virtually zero distortion. On modern crop-sensor or full-frame mirrorless digital bodies, it adapts beautifully to make a hyper-compact street or documentary lens with a classic, organic vintage character that digital glass cannot match. It is a completely transparent, satisfyingly tactile piece of history.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOlympus F.Zuiko Auto-S 38mm f\/1.8\u003c\/b\u003e Standard Prime Lens (S\/N: 425889)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\"\u003eFront Protective Lens Cap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,2,0\"\u003eRear Olympus Pen F Mount Protective Cap\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"\u003eBrand: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eOlympus\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\"\u003eModel: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eF.Zuiko Auto-S 38mm f\/1.8\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\"\u003eLens Type: Prime Lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,3,0\"\u003eLens Mount: Olympus Pen F Bayonet Mount (Half-Frame)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,4,0\"\u003eFocal Length: 38mm (Equivalent to ~55mm on Full-Frame)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,5,0\"\u003eMaximum Aperture: f\/1.8\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,6,0\"\u003eMinimum Aperture: f\/16\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,7,0\"\u003eOptical Construction: 6 Elements in 5 Groups\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,8,0\"\u003eFocus Type: Manual Focus Only\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,9,0\"\u003eCategory: 2.
