This PRO lens is the culmination of Olympus optical technologies cultivated over many years. A total of 28 elements in 18 groups includes large-diameter EDA lenses and Super ED lenses for excellent clarity across the entire zoom range at F4.5. Unique Z Coating Nano reduces ghosting and flaring with every shot.

Image stabilisation

Previously difficult super-telephoto shots are possible thanks to high-performance 5-axis Sync IS, which compensates camera shake up to 6 EV steps* with a compatible camera. This image stabilisation system enables accurate, clear subject capture at any zoom range during handheld photography. And because it supports you in the field, framing is also much easier.

*According to CIPA standard. When attached to OM-D E-M1X, with yaw and pitch applied to camera, half-press IS set to Off, and focal length set to 400mm (or 500mm with built-in teleconverter).

Built-in teleconverter

At the flip of a switch, the teleconverter inside this super-telephoto zoom lens extends the focal length by 1.25x for 1000mm* shooting at max. F5.6. You can go even further by adding the MC-14 Teleconverter for a focal length up to 1400mm* or the MC-20 Teleconverter for up to 2000mm* ? all while retaining the high optical performance of the master lens. *35mm equivalent

Fast focusing

Thanks to unique lens thinning technology from Olympus, the focusing lenses of the M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO are lighter - delivering fast and highly precise autofocus across the entire zoom range. Also when you use the built-in teleconverter, there is virtually no change in focusing speed through your shoot.

Versatile shooting

The ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO covers a wide range of shooting - from super-telephoto to tele macro. For subjects far away or nature close up, this lens zooms in close and lets you adjust the focal length to get exactly the composition you have in mind. The minimum working distance of 1.3 metres and a magnification of up to 0.36x (0.71x*) are ideal. This lens also supports Focus Stacking for a fully-in-focus subject. *35mm equivalent

Lightweight, compact

Weighing in at just about 1.8kg, the M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO is one of the lightest lenses in the super-telephoto range. Lightweight carbon fibre reinforced plastic helps to maintain balance, while robust magnesium alloy provides strength. To ensure the lens always remains stable, the inner system remains the same throughout the zoom range.

Robust, weatherproof build

Go on any photo assignment with The M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO. The dustproof/splash proof/freezeproof sealing complements the white heat-resistant body, which reflects infrared sunlight to keep temperatures inside the lens from rising. The front lens features the Fluorine coating to make the surface harder to scratch and easier to wipe off.
