microFourThirds mount lenses

microFourThirds mount lenses

MicroFourThirds (MFT) is a mirrorless bayonet mount jointly developed by Olympus and Panasonic, introduced in 2008. It has a flange focal distance of 19.25mm, a throat diameter of 38mm, and uses a 17.3×13mm sensor (4:3 aspect ratio, roughly 2.0× crop versus 35mm). The mount has three tabs and is fully electronic, supporting autofocus, electromagnetic aperture, and in-lens or in-body stabilization; there are no mechanical linkages between the lens and the camera. It shares its sensor format with the earlier FourThirds DSLR mount, whose lenses are adaptable with an adapter.

Note: This reference currently counts only autofocus lenses.

Olympus M.Zuiko Digital lenses

Pro-grade lenses feature tighter build tolerances and weather resistance. Two Olympus Digital body cap lenses don’t carry M.Zuiko branding; while they are fully compatible with the mount, they don’t offer autofocus or aperture control. The M.Zuiko Digital 17mm F2.8 lens is the only lens featuring a unit-focusing mechanism, where the whole optical block is moved to focus –‍ like SLR/DSLR lenses usually do.

OM System M.Zuiko Digital lenses

Following the rebrand of the Olympus camera division into OM System, lenses with the updated branding started to appear. Other than the branding, they are optically and technically identical. Some lenses have also received updated styling.

Panasonic Lumix G lenses

Image stabilization present on some Panasonic Lumix lenses works on both brand bodies, especially models released after 2012. Older models are hit and miss, but in no case is dual stabilization—both working in conjunction—achievable cross-brand. The 20mm F1.7 lens is the only one using a unit-focusing mechanism, and it does not provide AF-C on some cameras.

Leica DG lenses

Some Leica-branded lenses have an aperture ring and image stabilization. Aperture rings are usable only on Panasonic cameras; aperture rings do nothing on Olympus cameras. Image stabilization works, but in-body stabilization must be turned off on Olympus/OM System bodies to work; Panasonic bodies switch automatically, or can use both at the same time.

Third-party autofocus lenses

Sigma lenses are also available for other APS-C mounts; no lens was specifically designed for the microFourThirds system. The same is true for some other lenses, as well. The Xiaoyi 42.5mm lens does not feature a focusing ring; it is an autofocus-only lens. The DJI lens is a rebranded Leica DG Summilux lens, while the Meitu lens is a rebranded Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ lens.

Notable unreleased lenses

Schneider-Kreuznach presented a few lenses at the Photokina show in 2012 with a planned 2014 release. But the lenses never went further than a few demo and testing specimens shown in multiple events (30mm lens in different versions), only to be finally officially abandoned in 2015.

Notable manual focus lenses

Only lists lenses designed specifically for microFourThirds sensor and mount, not necessarily with an active mount. Some Laowa lenses are designed with greater image circle coverage but feature an active microFourThirds mount, providing in-camera aperture control and full EXIF information feedback.
