I'm using this lens on a micro Four Thirds camera (E-PL2). Here is my experience to date: Focusing - fast and quiet to focus. Stops - Changing the aperture is a easy, smooth and positive Zoom - The zoom mechanism is fast, smooth and silent Image quality - Good contrast, excellent color, when wide open has pleasant off-focus background, off-focus foreground is less pleasant but still fully acceptable, it is by no means ugly or unusual looking. It has good resolution with individual hairs of the fur of a squirrel well defined when in the 150mm zoom position. I am using a Lumix Four Thirds to micro Four Thirds adapter that allows for full use of the automated features of the lens (auto-focus, auto stop down). This lens works as you would expect a lens from a major manufacturer to work. It is a good, solid tool that serves well from the ~normal to medium telephoto range. Unless you need more speed than f/3.5 - f/4.5 this ought to take good care of you within the range.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Hi Olympus users. After thinking of setting my OM-2's back and going digital, I finally purchased my E-510 about a year ago. The camera is great but the 14/42 lense was alittle lacking, so more power. So, to ebay to buy my 14/54 lense of which I am still amazed with. It is a great, quality lense but I have been also watching the Zuiko 40/150 lenses also, comparing the series one and two. About a month ago while watching several lenses on ebay, I put a bid in on a series one lense, just for fun, and won the bid.......... A week later it was on my camera. Taking photos of our dogs and at our town's veteran's park, I found the lense to be very sharp and maybe alittle brighter that the camera's original lense. The series one 40/150 is slightly larger than the newer, more compact lense but the 3.5 appeture over the 4.5 of the series two lense means alot to me. I'm no pro talking up lenses and cameras, especially digital, but this lense is another quality piece from Olympus. The 40/150 series one compares equally to a couple of my film lenses. It is slightly larger than the series two but I am used to having something in my hand when holding my cameras and the size more balances out the camera. Although I do still like my OM series cameras, the time for change has come and with the purchase of my Zuiko 40/150 lense I find myself grabbing my E-510 and running out taking photos around town with all my photos comming out just great. I rated this lense at being good. It really is an excellent lense but if I rate it excellent there is no room for improvement. I did my home-work and watched for the right lense, and right price and am very happy with my lense.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I'm using this four-thirds lens on a micro four thirds camera (the Olympus E-P1) using a chinese JY-43F adapter. The lens generally works well for me. Picture quality is good but unremarkable. Pictures are neither so awesome that I dance, nor so bad that I weep. However, compared to the Panasonic Lumix H-FS014042 14-42mm (which I also have) in M4/3, the auto-focus on this one is slow and uncertain. With this Zuiko 40-150mm, the auto-focus tends to overshoot and then "seek" back and forth. The Lumix 14-42mm focuses quickly and reliably. This auto-focus wonkiness is not enough of a problem for me to leave the lens out of my bag, and at home altogether. But it's enough of a problem to make me think twice about when to use it. Maybe on an four thirds camera, this would not be a problem. Or maybe if I used the official Pana or Oly adapter, instead of the chinese knockoff, this wouldn't be a problem. But I suspect it's the lens itself. Mostly I use old manual focus (Canon FD, Nikon F, Konica AR) lenses on the E-P1, and it's actually faster to focus manually with some of these than with this particular lens. Let's be clear. I paid less about $80 US for my instance, and a new lens in this range three times the price on either amazon or ebay. So at the price, some compromise is to be expected.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I purchased the lens because I desired a longer telephoto that I can use for general walkaround/street/portraiture/event photography. I am happy with my purchase. She is a beautifully built, robust lens. I am using it with my Olympus E-Volt 410. It dwarfs the small camera body, but I like the look of it; reminiscent of 1970's 35mm SLRs. It is a relatively fast (for the price) lens, which is sharp and has good colour rendition. I love the fact that it has a steel mount, which was missing on the kit lens, giving a nice tactile feedback when installing it onto my camera. It feels as though it is built to last; I hope this lens will be in my collection for tens of thousands of pictures to come. Cheers, Bob
Olympus has always been very good with optics and this one is no exception. This lens is a great trade off of performance & price. Where as there are better zoom lenses available with bigger zoom and faster lenses (e.g. f/2.8), they also tend to cost 5-10x the price of this lens & are much bulkier and heavier. And while those premium lenses will perform better, you can bet their performance isn't the same 5-10x better to match the premium price. The 40-150mm is a very compact lens as well, so will easily fit in your photo gadget bag. Because of this, some people I know with better lenses (e.g. the 50-200mm f/2.8 at about $900) still carry this one when they are going to be out all day and want to travel light. Even a premium lens isn't very good if you often do not want to lug it around. The 40-150mm is very portable so you will always have it ready to go since it travels light.Vollständige Rezension lesen
