The Olympus M.Zuiko ED 40-150mm f2.8 PRO ($1,499.99) is a serious lens. It covers a longer telephoto zoom range then the standard pro 70-200mm zooms when paired with a Micro Four Thirds camera, and is incredibly sharp from edge-to-edge throughout the entirety of its range, even at f/2.8.
Edge-to-edge sharpness throughout zoom range; No distortion; Protected from cold, dust, and splashes; Excellent close focus capability; Innovative collapsible hood; Manual focus clutch system; Includes tripod collar
Pricey; Lack of optical stabilization an issue for Panasonic Micro Four Thirds shooters
