    Quite good zoom for the purpose and price. Thanks, Olympus.
    I wanted a long lens that would couple with my OM-D EM 5 mk II to shoot the 21 August eclipse. Given the budgetary facts of life, it was either this one or get a T-mount adapter and use a 40+ year old 400mm stovepipe tele I had in the closet. The stovepipe wouldn’t couple and isn’t so sharp. So I bought this. I am delighted that I did. The lens is reasonably sharp at long distances and all focal lengths. The corners soften wide open at 300mm, but stopping down to f/8.0 or f/11 pretty well mitigates the problem, and anyway with a long lens central sharpness is most important.At focal lengths up to about 250-275 mm I have no optical complaints whatever. To be sure it is not the famous Leica 400mm Visoflex lens of long ago, nor one of the Olympus PRO-Series lenses. Neither does it carry their price tags. It is slow, so the remedy is to up the camera’s ISO value, an advantage of digital over any film ever made. Even stopped down the depth of field is shallow, so isolating the subject is not a problem. I haven’t yet done any tests for /bokeh/, so I can’t comment on that.The exposure, as corrected by the camera’s firmware is even with little or no vignetting. Chromatic aberration is commendably low, given the price point.The lens is well built, given focal length range, aperture, and price. The plastic seems to be high quality industrial grade, and the whole thing feels solid on the camera (EM-5 mk II). The package is well balanced in the hand.Cons: the lens really should have some kind of bracket or foot to improve the way it balances on a tripod. The ergonomics are less than stellar, and it’s awkward to reach the manual focus ring to tweak focus, necessary on tele shots.Real Life: I have attached an enlarged and cropped HAND HELD picture of the moon. As to post processing: very little. A bit of exposure correction and routine sharpening that all digital pictures benefit from. Note that the lunar color is pretty neutral, as it was that evening. No color corrections at all were applied.The Tycho crater stands out cleanly; the craters along the terminator came out much better than expected. If solar prominences are present at the eclipse, there should be no problem capturing them.Long distance landscape test shots were sharp, with excellent contrast and color.I really can recommend this to any micro-4/3 user who wants a very long lens for nature, scenery, and sports but who also has a budget that prevents acquiring a Pro-series lens.

    Very good lens if you know what you are doing
    This is a lens often misunderstood: I read both positive and negative reviews as well on it. I think that often people, seeing how little and lightweight this is, forget it is a zoom reaching 300mm on micro four thirds, which are 600mm on full frame! This means an ampliación of roughly 12x, so a subject 12 meters far away from you appears as it was just 1 meter from you if you were taking photos with a 25mm lens, which is a “normal” lens in micro four thirds. So this lens requires a bit of practice before you use it in a trip or something important to you.Some tips:If you use it handheld (not on a tripod) hold it firmly,On 300mm you lose some sharpness and contrast, pretty normal on a zoom lens, so close the diaphragm at least about a stop, and everything will improve.Also you could consider to use at longer end, instead of 300mm, 250-280mm. Not a big difference in magnification, but it slightly improves the general quality.Don’t push iso over 800. You will gain higher contrast and definition.If you can, in a really dark environment, consider to use a flash: it will help you to keep iso low, it will enhance colours and contrast as well, but be careful, as the zoom at high end becomes pretty long, or you will have the shadow of the lens itself on your photos.Use a hood.Shoot in raw. Camera Raw by Adobe is a powerful tool and it can change very much the look of your photos.Downsides:It is pretty dark at 300mm (f6,7) but I consider it normal for such a long focal length, and you can bypass this limit using one or more tips like I wrote here.Contrast is not exceptional at 300mm, but there are many ways to enhance it.Olympus doesn’t give you a hood, which is not very kind, considering that it would cost pennies to them and doing so, they forced us to buy one separately.no image stabilization in this lens, but Olympus has a very good stabilization in its bodies, so no big deal.Pros:Very sharp from 75 to 200mm. It can be very sharp also at 300mm, but you have to put some work on it.It focuses fast, just be careful to uniform colours in the background, if you don’t use an OM-1 or an E-M1 mark III or II, as all the E-M 5 and E-M 10 will struggle a bit to focus in that situations.Practically negligible chromatic aberration and distortion. In case of strong backlight it’s very easy to correct it in Photoshop or Lightroom anyway.Despite the abundance of plastics, this lens appears to be solid and very well made.Of course, it’s not the 300mm f4, which costs about four times more, but…this costs about four times less, so…I am perfectly happy with this lens.

    I’m very pleased with this lens. It stays true to the micro 4/3 philosophy of small and compact. It’s a 600mm equivalent lens that I can carry in my cargo pants pocket!Image quality seems to be excellent, I try to keep the iso at 200 for best results, I’ve used it on overcast cloudy days and even at 200iso my shutter speed was never under 1/250 shooting into shaded tree areas. More than fast enough for any sitting birds.Highly recommended for casual person that brings a camera on hikes or walksI used it with an E-M5 markii.

    I bought this because my Lumix 45-175 just didn’t have quite enough reach for wildlife work. Its a much heavier lens than the Lumix and about equal in sharpness I think, certainly no sharper. The autofocus works but because DoF is so shallow it often latches onto the wrong thing – a branch or another bird in the background. That’s as much to do with the camera (E-M1ii) as the lens of course. Speed of focus is about average. In practice I find myself using manual focus a lot of the time. Once you get focus sorted its really quite sharp. The control rings are smooth-ish but not as silky smooth as my 12-45 or even the Lumix. There is a bit of variation in the resistance over its range too. For the money its hard to argue and the small size and weight (especially compared with larger format options!) is a huge plus. I’ve attached a couple of sample shots, one a landscape(75mm) the other a robin(300mm).

    Wer bei auf 600 mm Kleinbild umgerechnet und dann Anfangsblende 6,7 erwartet, das 100% der Bilder im Pixelpeeping (100% Ansicht) knackscharf sind wird enttäuscht, aber nicht nur von diesem sondern von jedem Objektiv.Man muss für sich austarieren, welche Belichtungszeit man seinen Ansprüchen und Fertigkeiten zutraut. Das beigefügte Beispielbild hat mich überzeugt, bei voller Telestellung ist, auch in der 100%-Ansicht, der Dachfirst von links bis rechts, und natürlich auch die Taube, gestochen scharf. Gegebenenfalls bringen doppelt bis dreimal so teure Objektive noch mehr Leistung. Aber mir genügt das vollkommen.Definitiv kein Objektiv für schattige Bereiche, aber das ist weniger ein Mangel des Objektivs sonderen der extremen Brennweite an sich. Mit einer geschickten Kombination von ISO und Blende gelingen sehr gute Aufnahmen.Nachtrag am 29.5.2020: Bei guten Lichtverhältnissen im Zoo überzeugt das Objektiv auf ganzer Linie. Die Beispiele zeigen aber auch den engen Bereich der Schärfentiefe. Von daher, genaues fokussieren ist elementar. Aber dann erhält man 1a Ergebnisse.
