Had Nikon D300 and accessories (too much weight), for health reasons, switching to Olympus.
Often disobeyed company - by me - am more than thrilled.
* Lens 80-300 (small picture) is the perfect companion with only 220gr.
* Imaging performance of my E520 good
* Thanks to the anti-shake E520, the lens can be used to in the twilight
* Already at full aperture super pictures - lowest distortion at 40, vernächlässigbar
* Lens is not too heavy or smooth, just right
* 80mm (small format) as very good portrait lens
* Compatible with 1.4 teleconverter from Zuiko, then a 112 - 420mm (small format) lens and still top imaging performance !!!
Olympus Zuiko Lenses & highly recommended who do not carry much weight and commitment to excellence, could not live without
So far, my clients have not noticed the "only" an Olympus was at work - I recommend this camera and lenses on - a rethinking has taken place with me
