Telescopic Lens for Olympus 
by .. Prakash C. Kamdar (Wheaton, IL , USA)
Gifted to my son who has an Olympus Digital SLR. He is very satisfied with the results and picture quality.
Great Product by .. R. New (NY)
Great Product, very sturdy, dropped mine on pavement and still works fine. Picture quality is great as well. The only down side is the relatively slow focus, so i don't recommend it for action shots.
Great lens for a low price! by .. Mark E. Brassette (Grand Junction, CO)
This is my 3rd lense for my E-620 and I love it! It is quite bulky compared to the 40-150mm, however compact when compared with APS-C lenses. Great buy! Now I just need the EC-20...
Excellent lens 
by .. Robert Strahota ()
This is an excellent lens. Relatively easy to switch among other lenses when taking photos. Picture quality is good, reliabilty appears good - I've used perdiodically for only 3 months. Excellent service from Amazon too.
Great superzoom on a budget by .. Flying Smokey (Claremont, CA, USA)
This was a bargain purchase (compared to other Olympus lenses) but this lens's quality surprises me. Don't expect much in low light - it is a slow lens, after all - but if you can hold it steady and give it a good focus target, this lens will deliver. I find it considerably sharper than the 40-150mm kit lens under all conditions. Caveats: The time required to autofocus can be quite long, even with a good focusing target (owing to the long distance the elements move through the focus range - about two inches). The lens hood rotates the focusing element when you try to remove or attach it. While the lens is considerably easier to manually focus than the kit lenses, the focus ring has no stops or markings, which considerably complicates the job. Bottom line: If you want really long reach and top-quality images, but can't afford the pro-quality Olympus glass, get this lens, learn its quirks, and enjoy!
