OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 75-300mm f/4.8-6.7 II Lens

great pics on my Disney vacation and cruise. While it is certainly not a street photography lens, it was great when getting animal pics at the Animal Kingdom hotel, which is a giant "U" with about 20 acres of pasture in it for the African animals to roam. So the animals are often at some distance away, but this lens brought them in, and at the low end, still worked for the animals that came closer to our deck. Well worth the cost! And, compared to my DSLR, it and the Olympus Pen EP7 are so much lighter, and easier to carry when traipsing around the Animal Kingdom Park (zoo), too. Although I ended up not using this lens there, as the animals are much closer.

This lens is awesome. The size fits perfectly in my camera case it's easy to use. Purchased it on sale great value.One of the best functions with this is that I can double with my camera and make the zoom even better.

So if you have OM-5 and are not rich this lens is a must have but it comes with some drawbacks.a) obviously its not a f2.8 lens so in low light it can be a challnge, but its real workcable during normal conditionsb) as it is equivalent to 600mm you can get quite a bit of detail.Only negative thing I have to say is that it is not quite as sharp at 600mm. But threfor you can at least see closer what you take a picture from which for wildlife is good.c) the best thing is its weight, as with all MFT gear.I which OM systems would have larger sensors so you can even crop in more.

I guess you get what you pay for. This provides a decent level of zoom for wildlife shots and similar for a good price. But, the quality just isn't great. The aperture isn't that great and it doesn't let in a lot of light and I find I basically can't take any kind of good pictures near the high end of the zoom. Some of that is assuredly a skill issue (I'm a beginner), but my other lens with less zoom but f/2.8 aperture takes much clearer pictures.

Integrates well with my camera and if I can figure out how to use it, anyone can. The pictures are great too. I am glad I purchased this.

Amazing quality, easy to focus and zoom, light and supper functional for long shots.

Arrived in great shape. Works well. I am not a professional. It works well for stationary birds. Took some reasonable aircraft shots at an airshow.

Good telephoto lens in good lighting conditions. Photo quality at 300mm suffers a bitin weak lighting. I use it with an Olympus OM-1 camera body which has an excellentprocessor, this helps the lens a bit too.
