Wonderfully sharp lens. I started switching to OM after being a Nikon shooter for many years, decades. Started with the OM 1 markii and 90mm macro lens because of the live stacking and other features like the internal density filter and computational modes. Much to learn but the menu is intuitive. I purchased the 40-150mm f/2,8 and after realizing the IQ decided to get the OM 300mm pro and an 8-25mm f/4 pro. Selliing some of my Nikon gear helps to pay for them. The Z9 covered the initial purchase.

I bought this along w the new OM1 camera and two other zoom lenses. This serves as my mid zoom. While a bit larger than I expected, I’m very impressed w the build quality, the clarity of the pictures and its ability to work impeccably w the OM camera. I’m happy to have the larger 2.8 aperture just for lower light. Many go w the 4.0 aperture for the smaller size of the , and I totally understand that choice too. Very pleased w this camera system and glad I went with OM

This is absolutely one of the best lenses I have ever owned! It is sharp, quick focusing, has great color and contrast. The bright 2.8 aperture throughout is a joy to work with! I’d give it a 12 on a scale of 1-10.

Lightweight, very sharp. Great lens to bring out and enjoy. Compact enough to just bring out, and very fast aperture for high speed, low light situations. The lens hood design lets you quickly retract it.
