Not a real review, but just some pictures taken at an airshow last weekend.
This was a lens I really wasn’t sure about,
but that day she really surprised me.
While every photographer hid his camera in the pouring rain,
I just walked around with my E-M1 Mark II with the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 Pro in my hand, water dripping off in streams from my camera and lens.
Angle of view ? sometimes on the edge, but just enough.
Normally I would never take a 150mm to an air show, rather a 300 or 400mm.
And even though I had the Olympus TC1.4 in my jacket pocket, I never felt the need to use it for a single moment.

I was looking at this lens, but won’t be getting it yet. I just bought two new Fujifilm prime lenses, so must resist spending more!
Great images Marc, and looks like a very capable lens!

Hi Mark, although I think it’s a great lens, I wouldn’t recommend it on a viewfinderless camera.
It’s an f2.8 and that shows in the weight.
But, Olympus does have a super good and light alternative, the 14-150 mm, and it is more manageable on a Pen camera. By the way, I have to say that your results with your pen E-PL8 are also magnificent !
Thank you Mark 🙏

The 14-150 was another lens I was looking at. But I’m just keeping the two lenses I get. My Olympus is literally just my fun, family camera.
Thanks for that, I like the results of the E-PL8 too. The raw files are so much fun and easy to edit! My review is coming very soon (I have done it, but need time to format it).
Thank you Marc!

Knap gedaan met een 150 mm

Dankuwel Joke, ja, dat was één van de redenen waarom ik overgeschakeld ben van Fujifilm naar Olympus, de factor 2 van de sensor. 150mm wordt dus 300mm. Mijn uitrusting wordt dus kleiner en lichter, met hetzelfde resultaat . 🙏

Ja, ik denk dat voor vele mensen een kleinere en lichtere camera kit interessant kan zijn, vooral als je graag telelenzen met een groter bereik gebruikt.
