Perfect for the price! February 2, 2008

Well if you're an amateur like me the first thing you'll need to get used to is the focus distance. You need to be at least 3 ft away to focus. But once you are three feet away you can still zoom in on the subject and get a practical macro shot. I know everybody else has reported about weight and shot speed and such so I'll report something I found with it.
Today for some reason no matter what I did I couldn't get a distant tree to focus at 150mm (the tree was about 30 yds away). All the shots came out really soft. I had a circular polarizer on so that darkened it up a bit. The aperture was 4.5 and about 1/125 on shutter speed.
I'm just throwing it up that this thing's prime focus point at 150mm isn't at maximum aperture. But hey it's a cheap lens and it's absolutely wonderful for the price. I love it. :)

I'm very pleased to take a picture with this len. Its weight is not too much which is not the problem to bring it along the trip. Picture is colorful as Oly's style. Product's quality is OK.
Zuiko Lens 40-150mm January 7, 2008
Great lens. It is a good investment. I bought a Olympus E-500 body. This lens works excellent. I am very happy with the pictures I have taken with this lens. It is very easy to use.
Excellent telephoto lens December 2, 2007

This lens is both incredible and an incredible bargain. It is sharp edge-to-edge and has excellent color and contrast reproduction. This lens takes excellent pictures and you will not be disappointed. While many people can say this is great lens for the money, don't stop there. It's just a great lens and it's even better that it is so inexpensive!
It's well built and very sharp. I recommend it. In fact, I recommend this over the new Olympus 40-150 because it's faster (f/4.5 vs. f/5.6) at the long end and has better construction.
All in all, a great lens. You won't regret buying it.
Super Nice for the Price November 12, 2007

The best budget zoom for the 4/3 system. Relatively fast and TOTALLY USABLE throughout its range. Takes decent outdoor/flash portraits on the wide end and is long enough to catch good action at my son's soccer games. The newer Olympus "blue band" 40-150 is much smaller and lighter, but it's also slower and, at this time, nearly twice as expensive. Don't even think about the Sigma 55-200. For the price, the old 40-150 is unbeatable.
