Zuiko Full Frame Fisheye 16mm f/3.5 Lense
This lense was probably introduced by Olympus between the period of 1975-1976. At the time of its introduction, this Zuiko 16mm full frame fisheye lense has quite an unusual fast lense speed at f/3.5. The sweeping 180° wide vision optical nature of this lense does not encouraged any add-on filter accessories nor any lense hood to be used at the front section and so, Olympus has designed a built-in filter type instead to facilitate such requirement by photographers. Original version of this full frame Zuiko fisheye has three filters built-in ( L39, Y48 and O56) while the later version replaced one of them with a neutral density and retain the Y48 and O56 filter.
Its close focus ability enables it to focuses down to 0.2 meter and when you combine this with immense depth of field the lense generates, offer photographer with considerable potential for many creative photographic applications. However, it is strange to notice Olympus has not revised this lense with a possible update to include close range optical correction mechanism thus far. The moderately lens speed of f/3.5 makes it less demanding in compromising with weight (180g) and dimension (31mm in its overall length, 59mm in diameter), making it the most compact full frame fisheye lense you can find among any 35mm SLR camera/lense manufacturer. This highly portable Zuiko fisheye is a very versatile lense and you may find it suiting for many potentially fascinating creative ultra wideangle effects. The revolving filter turret is being cleverly designed to locate at the front section where a built-in neutral density, Y48 and O56 are provided on the newer version for easy handling (older version does not carry the ND filter). The 180° field view does not permit attachment of external mounting of accessories nor any lens hood. Other than the improvement of selection on filters and possibly multi-coating process, it seems this fisheye lense has remained virtually unchanged physically and optically since its inception back in early seventies. The first 16mm lense that officially beared a "MC" designation in the lens data only appeared very late in 1982, you may use this to estimate the date of production.
