Pros: Sharpness at all fl's , light, small , good IQ , good contrast ,

Cons: nothing ( especially given the price )

Opinion: They don't call it the plastic fantastic for nothing . A must have for any m4/3 kit . Pair it with a wider zoom like the pana 14-42 II and you're good to go for vacations/hiking/beach etc..Even portraits at > 100 mm Bought it used for 70 euros , wanted a long zoom for vacations ( I like the 40 to 100 mm fl a lot ) without breaking the bank . Absolutely blown away by the lens . As good if not better than my old 4/3 70-300 . Weighs nothing , with my Em5 ideal holiday combo . Highly recommended .

Pros: Lightweight, compact, sharp

Cons: I didn't find any considering the type of lens

Opinion: Used for a few months combined with a panasonic g80, it was a revelation for me that I had never even used the micro 4/3 system. Used in good light it has flattering results that I really didn't expect, even in close-up shots. At full aperture it does better than other lenses in the same category. I didn't find any chromatic aberrations either. Considering the second-hand price and what it offers, I can only recommend it.

Pros: Excellent yield, insignificant price, Small and compact

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: I start by saying that this optics is a big problem, just the fact that you can take home an equivalent 300, sharp and compact at a street price very close to € 100 makes it a big problem. That? Because when you want to change the system (for a thousand thousand possible reasons) you will realize that there is simply no substitute for this lens for other systems, or rather it certainly exists but it will force you in any case to a decidedly different outlay. An example, the fuji 55-200 to date, on a well-known online sales site is € 695, the 50-230 is close to € 400, Only Sony today offers an alternative positioning itself just above the price of this in review (which is still double). The m43 system is composed of many beautiful lenses and of extreme quality but this, in its small way, proves to be fundamental. It is small, sharp and light, in my opinion an optics that should not be missing in the m43 kit if you have a better lens.

Pros: IQ, cost, lightness

Cons: Construction

Opinion: Let's clarify something that is not understood very well when inquiring about this lens: the image quality is there. Then it will certainly not be that of much more noble optics, but you will be amazed. What's not to like? The construction is truly low. But given the cost you have to take it into account. Optics highly recommended for sporadic use!

Pros: Great and light

Cons: Malzionation

Opinion: Hello everyone, my name is Giuseppe and I bought a few days ago a lens M.Zuiko Digital 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6 R Silver and I wanted to know how the zoom works. I noticed that the small front multi-turn ring seems not to act and does nothing while turning it a lot. on both sides. The large ring, that is, the one in the middle of the lens, makes only mechanical and not electric movement. Does it work like this? I also bought the camera OLYMPUS OM-D E-M10 MARK IV in kit with lens M. Zuiko Digital ED 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ and this has on it the ring that makes it move electrically both in Tele and in Wide Question : Does the M.Zuiko Digital 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6 R Silver lens work like this i.e. only in manual or does it work badly or is it broken?
