this one is on my OM-D 50% of the time - I combine it with the 12 - pana 25 - 45 and voigtlander 17.5 / happy with it

Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 14-150mm 1:4-5.6 review

Olympus's Micro Four Thirds superzoom is, typically, the smallest in its class, and has respectable image quality too. It's a fine general purpose and travel lens, although Panasonic camera owners should take note of the lack of optical image stabilisation

Olympus M.Zuiko ED 14-150mm f4.0-5.6

The Olympus M.Zuiko ED 14-150mm f4.0-5.6 ($599.99 direct) is an all-in-one zoom lens for Micro Four Thirds cameras. Its 10.7x zoom range covers an impressive 28-300mm (35mm equivalent) field of view, and its aperture only narrows by one f-stop as you zoom.

A good lens

saves carrying and swapping between 2 lenses for the same range

Many lenses of this type are plagued by distortion and sharpness issues, but this one manages to keep distortion to a reasonable level, and aside from some issues with the edges at longer focal lengths, is impressively sharp. It's not a lens for low-light shooting, but if you're looking for a walkaround lens to use in good light, it's a solid option. The lens measures 3.3 by 2.5 inches, weighs 9.9 ounces, and features a 58mm filter thread. It telescopes as you zoom, doubling in length by the time you get to 150mm, but the front element doesn't rotate so using a polarizing filter is possible. Aside from the wide zoom ring and narrower manual focus ring, there are no physical controls on the barrel. Ther...

My Favorite Lens

I like the range and use it for most of my photographs. The only two lenses I carry most of the time are this and a 75-300 although I do occasionally use a 500mm lens for extreme distance.It is just too convenient to do without.
