Faint but optically very well with fast autofocus

The M.Zuiko Digital 75-300mm II I use since early summer, especially for free-running dogs and mostly in the focal length range between 200 and 300mm. My copy not weakens and can also be seen at 300mm in top form. The photos are sharp even at maximum aperture, autofocus is fast and accurate.

From this lens, I initially not expecting that much, as former Canon photographer with a rich equipment of L lenses I thought when purchasing only a temporary solution to the announced for the autumn M.Zuiko 40-150mm f2.8 would finally come , I was very pleasantly surprised and will definitely keep it. The focal length range is ideal for walks in the countryside, in the Deer Park, with dogs, traveling and the combination OMD E-M1 with this lens is not even for me as a woman too hard.

As a nature and wildlife photographer I worked with APS-C cameras with crop factor 1.6 before I switched to Olympus. The additional advantage now take pictures with Crop 2 and thus to double the size of the image detail as compared with the small picture is enormous - Focus and exemption simply fit perfectly in this application area. The 75-300mm lens delivers the same image section as a 150-600mm lens on a camera with so-called. Full size (small picture).

Two disadvantages of the lens but if little light is available, I'll leave it at home, because with little light to shoot at f6.7 at the long end - it need not be if, like me has alternatives. The second point has already been mentioned here - Olympus provides the great piece of technology, unfortunately without lens hood. A still Intended point is that the lens does not have a stabilizer. To not need a lens on an Olympus camera but also because having the stabilizer on the sensor. Anyone traveling by Panasonic, you should prefer the right, stabilized 100-300 Panasonic set. Is halt so that each producer the lenses optimally adapts to its own segment, even if you have a common standard - here Micro Four Thirds.

The Olympus EZ-M7530 M.Zuiko Digital 75-300mm II (please take care when buying it that it is the version II!) Earns still five stars - the optical performance, neat design with light weight, sharpness at maximum aperture and speed Autofocus establish a strong buy recommendation for the purchase price you get a very real value.

Welcome to my photos - all are (600mm to KB) freehand emerged at full aperture and 300mm focal length.
