OM System M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 II review: The must-have "nifty fifty" finally gets weather sealing

OM System M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 II on a wooden surface.

It took 17 years, but the OM System M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 II has finally righted one of the great injustices of the Micro Four Thirds lens ecosystem: its predecessor wasn't weather-sealed and didn't come with a lens hood.

The OM System M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 II rights both wrongs, and cements itself as the perfect "nifty fifty" for MFT cameras (this being a 50mm equivalent, in full frame terms). However, aside from adding the sealing and including a hood in the box, nothing else has changed from the original Olympus M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 launched in 2012.
