That is an often none fully admitted but finally true that better optics are more expensive and the Olympus M.Zuiko ED 40-150mm F2.8 Pro zoom lens is reflecting exactly that. It is not that you cannot take good pictures from cheaper lenses because it can certainly be done but each time you must be aware to be very on the edge from your final image cropping and your exposure setting. With less expensive lenses your latitude is narrowed. With "Pro" or "Premium" optics, you are discovering the comfort to able to perform a more elaborated editing without too much quality dropping.
Along the road of using Olympus Pro and Premium lens models, I cannot prevent myself to be every time amaze by the outstanding optical performances of the Olympus ED 40-150mm F2.8 Pro.
But let be honest about the Olympus ED 40-150mm F2,8 Pro zoom lens, it is a big piece of glass by the Micro Four Third (MFT) sensor format standards. In fact, al "Pro" optic has that tendency to be large and weighty and, in that case, not far from 2 lbs. (880g). With the lens hood attached and extended, the length of the zoom lens is reaching 22cm (more than 8 inches). So yes, it is definitively not a compact lens.
Magnification is ranging from 1.6 to 6X compare to a MFT "normal" lens (25mm) which can be considerate as standard for a modern varifocal telephoto optic. Among the advantages of using the Olympus Ed 40-150mm F2.8 Pro there are a snappy autofocus reactivity, rather large and well damped zoom (focal) and manual focus (with clutch optional) rings, good handling, a reliable tripod accessory ring removable and an ingenious big lens hood.
