Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/4-5.6 R - Pros & Cons

Build quality is decent enough and the focus ring is smooth and broad enough to be useful
close-up performance is pretty decent
Digital scores surprisingly well on this point
The zoom dial is very good
tube slides out in 2 steps and is pretty free of play
Digital performs reasonably well on autofocus
small
inexpensive and good
light
compact versatility
a great review with splendid images
sharpness in centre and acceptable in corners
Enjoy Patagonia and its impressive landscapes
a great lens and a bargain
The bokeh quality is smooth
rounded and quite pleasing
the quality of the images that it delivered
it just performs and delivers beautiful photographs

lack of IS can be a bit of a problem
Olympus lenses do not offer an image stabilizer
MFT cameras rather than the lenses anyway
sample showed no zoom creeping as a consequence
marginal distortion and negligible vignetting
the field of view is not a true 150mm at the long end
) Vignetting is rarely a factor for telephoto lenses
The lens does not extend while focussing
The 40-150mm is not designed as a macro lens
the zoom ring is a bit on the stiff side
so the lens front does not rotate during focusing
Panasonic bodies without built-in image stabilization
distortion is small
do not reach the high values of the jpegs
The lens has no built-in image stabilization and therefore
that the lens is not very robust
the lens is not as bright as a constant F2
The lens being not expensive
system lens are very expensive
The session always ends with an overpriced cup of coffee
the aperture opening was slightly larger
