This is undoubtedly the best lens I have ever used in 44 years of photography. Ive just returned from a week in outback Utah, ands this sweet baby did not let me down. Clear, sharp, free from chromatic aberrations, and in focus even at the corners. This lens will never be removed from my OM-D E-M5.

Sharp, pro build, wide open performance is tac sharp, not small at all but not as big as the cumbersome DSLR long telephoto lenses. Just all around well done.

Great lense. Fast focus, crisp photos. Compact but little heavy for MFT gear.

Kicking out some great images! I have been a Lumix mirror less guys for my entire photo career. Used almost exclusively Panasonic lenses, until now. I saw the report on the "Phoblographer" and waited for the product to hit the market. Bought it right away to mount it on my new GH 4 Lumix camera and have been WOWED EVER SINCE. This was so impressive I bought the 12-40mm Pro 2.8 as well. This is sweet glass. I use this lens for sports and general kid activities. Have only had it for a few weeks but found nothing to com plain about at all!!! I recommend this lens or anyone from the Olympus Pro line. Arrived on time and in great shape.

See below for full resolution comparison shots: [...] === Notes === - The following review has been written based on my experience using this lens with Olympus OM-D E-M1 for about 1 week. - I have written a review earlier for Olympus M.ZUIKO 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6 lens where I have noted ugly rendering of out-of-focus objects. So I decided to give this lens a try. This review therefore contains comparison shots between the two lenses. They have been shot using the same exposure settings while mounted on a tri-pod. You can find my original review here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R1AK77EYRJVO8Q/ref=cm_cr_pr_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B0066J6EOU === Pros === - Very even optical performance (sharpness and resolution) across the frame - Excellent flare control and the lack of vignetting - Quick and quiet auto focus - Solid metal construction with weather-sealing - Good placement of L-fn button (much better than the one on 12-40mm PRO lens which is too close to the body) - Good out-of-focus area rendering (no nastiness seen in the 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6) === Cons === - Continuous AF still needs improving - Price (more than 10x as compared to 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6) - Heavier and bulkier (more than 4x as compared to 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6) - Limited subject isolation even at 150mm and f/2.8. You may feel it lacking if you are, say, doing full-body portraits - Somewhat flimsy lens hood sliding mechanism === Summary === In my view, this lens is a buy if you need/value: - Optical performance across the frame and need longer reach than the standard zoom - Low light performance for night shots and indoor event coverage - Gaining "professional appearance" through the use of better equipment There is no doubt to me that this lens is indeed for professionals. If your needs are more casual, I would stick with cheaper and lighter options that are already out there.

Optically this lens gets 5 stars, its great at all focal lengths. Im deducting a star for the hood. Its a great concept, a simple twist and it slides back, no fumbling with reversing. However the glue on the metal ring of the hood is very weak, basically two sided tape, and its prone to come apart at which point you have ball bearings and tension springs flying everywhere. Keep an eye on it and if it starts to separate remove and reglue with something stronger, but dont let the inner ring slide all the way out. Or consider a simpler hood solution as a backup. Kudos to Amazon for replacing so quickly when I had this issue a month after purchase.

Like the built in lens cover, sharp images, small size, light weight. I use with extender with nominal reduction in image quality.
