In regard to the optical design, extra-low dispersion and high refractive index glasses are used to control a variety of aberrations and a ZERO coating has applied to suppress flare and ghosting to improve contrast and color accuracy.

Telephoto prime lens is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless digital cameras and provides a 120mm equivalent focal length.
Ideal for macro shooting, this lens offers a life-size 1:1 maximum magnification along with a minimum focusing distance of 7.5" to suit working with close-up subjects. The lens barrel also has an indicator window with scales for working at 1:1.3, 1:2, and 1:4 magnifications, and a Focus Limit Switch can be used to constrain the usable focusing range for faster, more controlled performance.
One extra-low dispersion element suppresses chromatic aberrations and color fringing to realize a high degree of clarity and color accuracy.
One E-HR (Extra-High Refractive index) element and two high refractive index elements are also featured in the optical design to control spherical aberrations and distortion for accurate rendering and high sharpness.
A ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating has been applied to individual elements to minimize lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.
Movie & Still Compatible (MSC) autofocus system benefits both photo and video applications due to its smooth, quiet, and fast performance.
Internal focusing mechanism maintains the overall lens length while focusing for easier use when photographing close-up subjects.
Splashproof and dustproof construction benefits working with this lens in inclement conditions.
Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth bokeh quality.

Can I use the TC 2.0X with the 60mm Macro?
Asked by: Jaf
The lens gives you 1:1 magnification with a minimal focus distance of 7 1/2 inches. I have not used a teleconverter with the lens. I think you could use it to increase the focal length. The sensor is micro fourth third, that would make the effective focal length of the lens at 120 mm.

question

Is the warranty worldwide or only valid in US?
Asked by: Anonymous
The lens comes with a 1-year Olympus USA warranty. For customers taking it outside the United States, please check with the manufacturer locally, to see if they will honor the USA warranty. This is entirely up to the discretion of the manufacture in question and out of the control of B&H.
