First off it’s good to understand that the focal length is based of off the old 35mm cameras. Now days full frame cameras have a sensor that is sized to be equivalent to 35mm film. Your micro four thirds sensor is smaller. It’s actually half the size of the full frame. The result of the smaller sensor is that the image will appear to be magnified on the micro four thirds sensor as compared to the standard full frame sensor. So for example if you took a photo with a 50mm lens on a full frame camera you would need to use a 25mm lens on a micro four thirds to capture the same image. I suggest you check out YouTube. There are a lot of people on there that can explain it better than I.
