Das Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-50 mm 1:3,5-6,3 EZ kann im Test nahezu auf ganzer Linie überzeugen, einzig leichte Reflexionen stören den Gesamteindruck etwas. Das Standardzoom punktet mit einer sehr guten Auflösung, die Verzeichnungen bleiben hier gering und auch ein Abfall der Schärfe zum Rand hin ist kaum zu erkennen...

Alles in allem ein zwar nicht fehlerfreies, aber sehr gutes Zoom mit einem sehr schönen Brennweitenbereich.
