Big Power in a Small Package

As a 40-150mm lens, we expect a larger, more cumbersome lens. However, the OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko 40-150mm f4 Pro Lens arrives as one of the World’s most compact and lightweight telephoto lenses ever. And, to complement the physical appearance of the lens is its high-resolution and intricate optical design that consists of 15 elements in 9 groups, including 2 ED lenses, 1 Super ED lens, 1 HR lens and 2 aspherical lenses.

The use of these specialised lenses effectively suppresses the appearance of a range of aberrations throughout the entire zoom range. Furthermore, this lens features the exclusive OM System ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating that thoroughly eliminating ghosting and lens flare even in backlit conditions. All in all, this arrangement of lenses and coatings help to provide truly exceptional image quality and performance.

Flexibility

The OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko 40-150mm f4 Pro Lens is not confined to telephoto use. While it does offer a full-frame 35mm equivalent focal length of an 80mm to 300mm lens and therefore can reach distance subjects, this lens has other tricks up its sleeve. The lens features a maximum image magnification of 0.41x (35mm equivalent) and a close focusing distance of just 70cm that is present across the entire focal range.

As a result, this telephoto zoom offers impressive close-up shooting for a range of different applications and will provide the very same professional image quality in each and every shot. What’s more, the lens also supports Focus Stacking; a function often used in macro photography.

Compact and Lightweight

As mentioned, this lens is impressively compact and lightweight considering the focal range that it offers. Its retracting lens mechanism, lightweight components and structure reduce the feeling of heaviness that is seen in most telephoto lenses and as a result, the lens lends itself to long shooting sessions. Keeping the weight down and the lens compact is the use of an internal zoom system that keeps the lens length the same across the entire focal length, suppressing centre of gravity changes while zooming.

Exceptional Build Quality

Released alongside the M.Zuiko 12-40mm f2.8 MK II lens, this lens is built to offer reliable weather resistance with an IP53 dustproof and splashproof rating, as well as being freezeproof down to -10°C. And, the front lens element features a fluorine coating that repels water, oil, and dust. Together, these additions allow you to shoot with peace of mind in the rain, snow and dusty environments.
