The Olympus Zuiko Auto Zoom 35-80mm f/2.8 is an Olympus brand lens. The production facility was located in Japan. It was introduced to the public in the mid-1990s. The lens can be used on SLR cameras with Olympus OM mount. With an adapter, it can also be used on modern digital cameras.
The lens belongs to the category of standard zooms. The zoom factor is 2.2 and the range is from 35 mm to 80 mm. The maximum aperture is f/2.8 throughout. The focus of this model is set manually. The minimum distance to the subject must be 60 cm.
The design of the Olympus Zuiko Auto Zoom 35-80mm f/2.8 consists of 15 elements in 11 groups. A filter lens, such as a UV filter, can be attached to the 62 mm thread. The manufacturer specifies the weight at 650 grams. This is not particularly surprising, since just the continuous focal length of f/2.8 contributes to the weight.
