After I tested a number of different telephoto lenses with a variable focal length setting for the MFT mount, I stayed with this objective "hang". It is my experience after the only lens that loses nothing in the long focal length of image sharpness. Since I use such a lens at all focal lengths almost exclusively at full aperture, like a great open aperture performance was extremely important. And at that point it beats any other lens in this focal length range. Just opposite a Panasonic 45-200 or 40-150 RII Olympus wins this Vario 45-175mm clearly the resolution comparison (with any focal length setting).
In addition, this lens can be processed perfectly, everything leaves a haptic impression of quality and all movements of lenses are taking place inside the housing. Thus, when changing the focal length does not change its overall length.
Included is (as usual) a solid lens hood and a padded carrying bag.
