With OM Digital Solution’s shift in emphasis to consider itself more of an outdoor equipment company that specializes in imaging equipment, the M.Zuiko 150-600mm f/5.0-6.3 IS clearly fits with the new strategy. Effectively a 300-1200mm, thanks to the crop factor of the Micro Four Thirds sensor, it’s very much suited to ‘outdoorsy’ applications and subjects – wildlife, birds, sports, adventure activities, aircraft and sailing.
To further strengthen its outdoor credentials, the 150-600mm is weather-sealed to the IPX1 standard for handling moisture and dust. Additionally, the exposed surface of the front element has a fluorine coating to help better repel water and grease, but also make it easier to clean.
