Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS Pro Lens

V315060BU000

The culmination of optical technologies cultivated over many years results in top-class super telephoto performance and superb resolution as an ILC interchangeable lens. It also supports telemacro shooting with a closest focusing distance of 1.3 m.

Covers a wide range of telephoto shooting equivalent to 300 to 1000mm. Not only can it zoom in close on far-away subjects, but the focal length can be adjusted to suit your shooting needs, resulting in exactly the composition you have in mind. Furthermore, enjoy shooting up to a 2000 mm focal length by attaching the 2x Teleconverter MC-20

A lavish, 28 elements in 18 groups lens construction was adopted, including newly developed large-diameter EDA lenses and 4 Super ED lenses for excellent clarity across the entire zoom range, minimal color fringing and flares, and superb resolution to the edges of the image on a large-diameter lens with a fixed F4.5 aperture.

Coating technology, Z Coating Nano, significantly reduces ghosts and flares for sharp, clear image quality. By adding a layer of nano-sized particles with a layer of air in the center to the surface of the lens, the coating achieves a refractive index similar to that of air for reduced surface reflections.

When using the built-in teleconverter that extends the focal length by 1.25x, you can enjoy 1000mm equivalent/max. F5.6 super telephoto shooting. So that you never miss a shot, the built-in teleconverter can be quickly switched and locked without ever having to take your eye from the viewfinder.

This lens is compatible with the optional Teleconverter MC-14/MC-20 that extends the focal length while keeping the high optical performance of the master lens. When combined with the 1.4x Teleconverter MC-14, you can shoot at a maximum 1400mm equivalent, and when combined with the 2x Teleconverter MC-20, you can shoot at a maximum 2000mm equivalent, for amazing super telephoto capabilities.

Close-up shooting performance with a closest focusing distance of 1.3 m (entire zoom range) and a maximum image magnification of 0.57x is now possible while utilizing the super-telephoto lens. A maximum image magnification of 0.71x is possible while using the built-in teleconverter for authentic telemacro shooting. This allows you the chance for close-up photography of subjects that are normally difficult to get close to.

Increase maximum image magnification by attaching an Olympus teleconverter (sold separately). The teleconverter MC-14 allows you to shoot at a maximum image magnification of 1.01x while the MC-20 increases magnification 1.43x.

Focus Stacking is also supported, which captures multiple shots at different focal positions, then automatically composites the shot. Capture a photo with a large depths of field that is in focus from the foreground to background using the super telephoto macro range.

A compact, lightweight design of less than 1.9 kg in the form of a super-telephoto lens. This model features superb weather-resistant performance for use in any field.

Utilizing optimal materials such as magnesium alloy, carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) and carbon fiber across the entire lens helps maintain strength and precision while keeping the design compact and lightweight at a length of 314.3 mm and weight of 1,875 g[2]. This model also employs an inner zoom system so the lens length remains the same across the entire zoom range, ensuring that the lens balance is always stable for shooting.

A lightweight carbon fiber lens hood is used to ensure that the center of gravity of the lens does not shift toward the end when the lens hood is used.

Even with a lens mounted, the OM-D E-M1X weighs about 3 kg (body approx. 1kg, lens approx. 2kg)- about half that of a full-size DSLR system. This makes not only handheld super telephoto shooting possible but it also reduces the burden of framing and panning as you shoot.

This product is equipped with superb dustproof, splashproof and freezeproof (-10℃) performance. Pairing this lens with a dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof camera body makes it possible to continue shooting in punishing environments such as rain and snow with peace of mind.

Since super telephoto zoom lenses require extremely precise control, the effects of heat cannot be ignored. To counter this issue, we adopted a heat-shielding coating that reflects infrared rays of sunlight with greater efficiency compared to a conventional black coating. Since super telephoto zoom lenses require extremely precise control, the effects of heat cannot be ignored.

To counter this issue, we adopted a heat-shielding coating that reflects infrared rays of sunlight with greater efficiency compared to a conventional black coating. Our coating provides excellent heat resistance, reducing internal temperature rise by about 10% and external temperature rise by about 30%. By suppressing internal temperature rise stable optical performance is ensured, even in hot weather.

This lens was designed to give you the ability to smoothly tune settings and functions as you shoot. It is equipped with a precise, rubberized zoom/focusing ring for fine control and has a focus memory function allowing you to set your favorite focal position instantly. Other function switches are laid out to let you focus on getting the shot.

We have lightened the focusing lenses thanks to Olympus's proprietary high-precision lens thinning technology. This makes AF fast and highly precise across the entire zoom range. There is virtually no change in focusing speed even when using the built-in teleconverter.

This Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-45mm f/4 Pro Lens comes with a full warranty in Australia.
