This telephoto zoom from the Olympus stable, designed for the 4/3rds mount system equates to a 100-400mm in 35mm terms when you apply the 2x crop factor that the 4/3rd system uses. We take a look at how this optic performs.
Excellent optical performance across the board; Good build quality that is externally simple and splash proof; Nice carry case supplied
Hood seems a little fragile for class of lens
