Olympus has already announced the cameras that will be presented at this year's CP+ Camera & Photo Imaging Show in Yokohama, Japan, but it seems those are not all the products to be showcased at this event.

Today, the Nippon camera and optics manufacturer announced the development of two new PRO lenses, namely M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 7-14mm f/2.8 PRO and M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 300mm f/4 PRO, designed for the MFT camera system.

M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 7-14mm f/2.8 PRO is a professional super wide-angle zoom lens and the first one in the M. ZUIKO PRO series to have a 35mm equivalent focal length of 14-28mm. The lens also comes with a splashproof and dustproof construction, making it usable in a wide range of situations.

M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 300mm f/4 is a prime super telephoto lens that covers a 600mm focal length (35mm equivalent) and also comes with a splashproof and dustproof body. Both lenses are scheduled to be released in 2015, but the company will display a mockup of each model at CP+. Price is yet to be announced.
