Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 75-300mm f/4.8-6.7 II Lens Review

Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 75-300mm f/4.8-6.7 II Verdict

This lens certainly won't suit everyone due to its modest maximum aperture and lack of optical stabilisation. However, if you own an Olympus Micro Four Thirds compatible camera with stabilisation built into the body, and take most of your super-telephoto images in good light, or with a support, then this lens should fit the bill nicely.

Overall, this lens is compact, well built, lightweight and capable of delivering excellent results at shorter focal lengths. It is a bit of a shame that the results are lacklustre by comparison at 300mm.
