OM System M.Zuiko ED 150-600mm f/5-6.3 IS

Pros: Sharpness, Stabilisation in combination with OM1(IS-Sync), pump zoom

Cons: Weight, focus limiter of the camera only with single AF,

Opinion: With this lens you reach at maximum 1200 mm referred to 35 mm. The IS is great. You do not need a tripod any longer to keep the camera in position, but with such a focal length you need a fast shutter speed to control the movement of your subjects. You need some time to get used to the heavy lens. Finding bird in flight is easy using the pump zoom. Bird detection and C-AF work well with the OM1. Macros can be taken of greater distance, for example butterflies, dragonflies and so on. You can accelerate the AF by using the focus limter of the lens. The imagequalitiy is very good over the complete focal range. I take about 90-95 % of my pictures with this lens. Exceptions are landscape (12 -100 mm Pro) and extreme macros(60 mm Macro). Keeping the magnification in mind you can get very good results witrh this lens.

Sirui AM-223

Pros: Weight, stability, handling, scope of delivery

Cons: None

Opinion: I bought this tripod for macro pics of flowers, insect and so on close to the ground. I bought the tripod without ballhead but wit an additional central pillar. A Feisol ballhead CB-40 D was applied. The handling is easy and it is no problem to attach the OM1 with the 150-600 mm and it is really stable. You can easily change the rubber Tips and mount the stainless steel tips for outdoor use.Hex wrenches for every part are enclosed, as well as carrier bags. A small, lightweight tripod with great manufacturing Qualität and 6 years of waaranty
