Review: functioned flawlessly in less than ideal conditions - I took my recently purchased Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 PRO Lens, purchased to use on an Olympus E-M1 Mark II body, west to Oklahoma this year in the middle of a frigid cold snap for the last weekend of quail season. Temps averaged in the single digits to low teens, with much colder wind chills. I set my camera on CA-F mode with burst shots. Extremely pleased with the super fast acquisition and autofocus, even in such cold conditions. Shots came out very clear (the first shot with the covey rise is cropped down quite a bit due to my distance from them) and I was able to take action photos of dogs while getting great shots of the scenery as well. My one complaint, and it's not a big one, is that the lens hood, when retracted, does tend to interfere with your zoom. However, I rarely, if ever, shoot without the lens hood extended. Both for photographic reasons and for simply protecting the lens. I carry my camera in a side mount with a Peak Designs slide strap, and walked through a lot of plum thickets and such, and the hood provides a ton of protection for your glass. This is a compact lens, and for a mirrorless system, it's not like your smaller lenses where you can shoot with your display as easy. It's certainly easier to shoot by raising your camera to your eye and looking through viewfinder due to the weight, but this comes natural for me anyway and it's a preferred shooting style for me. Very pleased with the lens performance. no detectible aberrations for me, and great, clear shots. Review: Lovely Lens for Any Level Photographer - I purchased this lens used and in very good condition and the image taken with it are stunning. Very pleasing results using straight out of the camera JPEGs. There is always this concept of "for beginners, this lens or that lens is good enough" as if beginner photographers cant' see the lack of resolution, sharpness or feel the build quality of a lens in their hands. The lens is for any level photographer and yes, maybe it won't be appreciated to its full potential by a beginner, but the pictures taken with it will be. People cross shop this lens with the Leica 50-200mm but I picked this lens over that one for 3 reasons: 1. I love the color rendition of Olympus lenses better than Leica's. The colors are bit warmer in the Olympus which is more to my liking. The lens also produces pictures that are analog looking, for lack of a better term. 2. The second reason is that the lens is sharper than the Leica throughout the zoom range when looking at edge to edge sharpness. I took pictures with medium quality lenses where the center is dead sharp but the edges get softer, and those softer edges are visible on 11x17inch metal prints from 3 feet away. 3. The third reason is that the lens is just 3.5 ounces heavier than the Leica lens when you don't use the tripod mount ,which is very reasonable when taking into account the constant aperture. Everyone is praising the Leica lens for being a lot more portable, but comparing the length, weight, and diameter, the only real savings in terms of portability is the 100g (3.5 ounces) of weight. I always shoot handheld and the tripod mount is of no use for me, but the weight reduction is just a bon for me. Overall, lovely lens, wonderful pictures. ## Features - Light weight powerful zoom - Weather Sealed Design - Fluorine Coating MF Clutch, Compatible with Teleconverter ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00NGSLSK4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #552 in SLR Camera Lenses | | Brand | OM SYSTEM | | Built-In Media | lens | | Camera Lens | M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/2.8 PRO Lens | | Camera Lens Description | M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/2.8 PRO Lens | | Color | Black | | Compatible Camera Models | Micro Four Thirds Mirrorless Cameras | | Compatible Camera Mount | Four Thirds | | Compatible Devices | Camera | | Compatible Mountings | Four Thirds | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 261 Reviews | | Exposure Control Type | Manual | | Focal Length Description | 40-150 millimeters | | Focus Type | Auto Focus | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00050332188778 | | Image stabilization | No | | Item Weight | 880 Grams | | Lens | Telephoto | | Lens Coating Description | ZERO Lens Coating | | Lens Design | Zoom | | Lens Fixed Focal Length | 150 Millimeters | | Lens Mount | Micro Four Thirds | | Lens Type | Telephoto | | Manufacturer | OM SYSTEM | | Manufacturer Part Number | V315050BU000 | | Maximum Aperture | 2.8 f | | Maximum Focal Length | 150.0 | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Minimum Aperture | 22.0 | | Minimum Focal Length | 40.0 | | Model Name | OM4015028 | | Model Number | V315050BU000 | | Number of Diaphragm Blades | 9 | | Photo Filter Size | 72 Millimeters | | Real Angle Of View | 6.37 Degrees | | Shooting Modes | A, S, M, Portrait, Landscape | | UPC | 050332188778 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Viewfinder Type | LCD screen | | Warranty Description | 1 year coverage for labor, 1 year coverage for parts | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | | Zoom Ratio | 3.75:1 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** OM SYSTEM - **Camera Lens Description:** M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/2.8 PRO Lens - **Compatible Mountings:** Four Thirds - **Focal Length Description:** 40-150 millimeters - **Lens Type:** Telephoto ## Images ![M.Zuiko Digital ED 40 to 150mm F/2.8 PRO Weatherproof Lens with Dual VCM Autofocus, Programmable L-Fn Function Button, Compatible With Teleconverter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61AR1XbVnuL.jpg) ![M.Zuiko Digital ED 40 to 150mm F/2.8 PRO Weatherproof Lens with Dual VCM Autofocus, Programmable L-Fn Function Button, Compatible With Teleconverter - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61A758g+E+L.jpg) ![M.Zuiko Digital ED 40 to 150mm F/2.8 PRO Weatherproof Lens with Dual VCM Autofocus, Programmable L-Fn Function Button, Compatible With Teleconverter - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31MypNjL-7L.jpg) ![M.Zuiko Digital ED 40 to 150mm F/2.8 PRO Weatherproof Lens with Dual VCM Autofocus, Programmable L-Fn Function Button, Compatible With Teleconverter - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611eP2mQm+L.jpg) ![M.Zuiko Digital ED 40 to 150mm F/2.8 PRO Weatherproof Lens with Dual VCM Autofocus, Programmable L-Fn Function Button, Compatible With Teleconverter - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Qh3BxbjIL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Anyone have experience with this lens on a GH4, care to share their thoughts?** A: I have used this lens with the GH3. Mounted on a tripod, it is excellent. Handheld, it is a difficult match. For stills, unless one is shooting in bright shooting conditions, the absence of an optical stabilization on the lens and on the GH3 makes this combo difficult to use. For video, I have turned the tripod collar upside down to make for an easier carry but the absence of optical stabilization makes shooting very jittery and uneven. The Panasonic 35-100mm f/2.8 has optical stabilization is much better suited to the GH3. The smaller and more compact form factor of the Panasonic 35-100mm f/2.8 makes it easier to handle to use for stills but even more for video with the GH3. **Q: Does this lens fit with a emp-2 pen** A: Yes, it will fit. They are both using micro 4/3 mount. However, this lens is relatively large comparing to e-pm2. **Q: I am concidering using this lens on the lumix g85 to shooting Surfing mostly (vid and stills), good Idea?** A: It's a great action lens and would work well for that, depending on how far away they are. **Q: Does it work with Balckmagic Cinema Camera ?** A: Yes, and it’s one of the best lenses I’ve owned. Beautiful in the Blackmagic cameras. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ functioned flawlessly in less than ideal conditions *by M***B on February 24, 2021* I took my recently purchased Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 PRO Lens, purchased to use on an Olympus E-M1 Mark II body, west to Oklahoma this year in the middle of a frigid cold snap for the last weekend of quail season.

I am a full time professional award winning photographer who switched to Olympus after 4 bad Nikons in a row. We all know about Nikon's quality control issues as of late. I have owned many Olympus cameras, Fuji cameras, and Sony cameras (I am a mirrorless guy.) I had mainly been shooting Sony as of late but have been disappointed in their lens selection and pricing. Don't get me wrong, Sony lenses are stellar and the Zeiss 55mm f1.8 has gone down as a legend for me and many others. However, smaller lens selection and unbelievably expensive glass for the range I need pointed me to look at this Oly 40-150mm lens. So where has this journey led me? Well I have sold off all my Sony gear except one camera and one lens and I have pretty much gone back to all Olympus products. I shoot, weddings, commercial, and family portraits mainly and yes micro four thirds cameras are really that good. I am so sick of the sensor size argument. I have shot these cameras in every type of lighting environment and they have blown me away. Best part is, Olympus glass is exceptionally good and most lenses will not break the bank. Also, yes, you can get beautiful bokeh and beautiful depth of field with these cameras. I am mean really good. Good enough to earn me wedding photography awards and most importantly the respect of my clients. Now to this lens. This 40-150 lens is the M43 game changer! Yes, it is that good! Good enough to make me sell off my Sony gear like I mentioned. This lens will go down as one of the best made from any manufacturer. The build quality is exceptional. The contrast is beyond beautiful. The bokeh is buttery smooth. Sharpness is second to none even wide open. Best of all, for a 40-150 f2.8 the lens is compact and light. Yes, it is expensive but if you want a lens to bring out the best in the micro four thirds sensor look no further. Olympus cameras are blazingly fast and with this lens on my OMD-EM1 I never miss a shot and I never have an out of focus image. No back focus issues ever (you hear that Nikon?) If you are serious about photography get this lens. It will blow you away. One quick side note. I get asked from Nikon and Canon people, well don't you feel weird showing up to events with smaller cameras and gear? No, I don't and in fact the retro look of the cameras have started more wonderful conversations than I can count and my back isn't gone by the end of the day. Don't be afraid to shoot micro four thirds. Yes, a full frame sensor will get a bit more dynamic range etc but if you know what you are doing these cameras will perform just as well. This cameras truly do put the fun back in photography for me and this lens is a legend. Happy shooting and sorry for my ramblings. ## Frequently Bought Together - OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 40 to 150mm F/2.8 PRO Weatherproof Lens with Dual VCM Autofocus, Programmable L-Fn Function Button, and 1.4x Teleconverter - Olympus M.Zuiko Digital MC-20, 2X Teleconverter - OM SYSTEM OLYMPUS MC-14 1.4X Teleconverter for the M40-150mm and 300mm f4.0 PRO Lenses (Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/8473565-m-zuiko-digital-ed-40-to-150mm-f-2-8](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/8473565-m-zuiko-digital-ed-40-to-150mm-f-2-8) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
