\n Ultimate Super-Telephoto Optical Performance<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

Lens construction consists of 28 elements in 18 groups, including a newly developed large-diameter EDA lens[3] and four Super ED lenses[4], reducing flares and color bleeding across the entire zoom range, and delivering superb edge-to-edge resolution and clarity.\u00a0Olympus’ renowned\u00a0Z Coating Nano technology is employed to suppress reflective light and provide sharp, clear image quality, even in difficult shooting environments, such as backlit scenes. The lens body features a built-in 1.25x teleconverter, maintaining high optical performance while enabling up to 1000mm equivalent1<\/b>\u00a0handheld super telephoto shooting, simply by flipping down the teleconverter. Additionally, the lens is compatible with optional M.Zuiko Digital MC-14 1.4x and MC-20 2x teleconverters. When paired with the MC-20, this lens is capable of up to2000mm equivalent1<\/b>\u00a0super telephoto shooting. This lens features a close focusing distance of 1.3 m<\/span> across the entire zoom range and close-up shooting performance with a maximum image magnification of 0.57x1<\/b>,<\/b>\u00a0which increases to 0.71x1<\/b>\u00a0when using the built-in teleconverter, for those who enjoy tele macro shooting.<\/p>\n

\n Unrivaled Portability and Weather Sealed Design<\/b>
\n \u00a0<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

The lens barrel is designed using magnesium alloy and the lens hood with a lightweight carbon fiber to ensure that the center of gravity of the lens does not shift, due to imbalance, when the lens hood is used. Use of optimal materials in each area of the lens maintains strength and precision while delivering a compact, lightweight design with a length of 12.4 inches and weight of only 4.1 lbs.[5], for unprecedented mobility. Pairing this lens with the superb dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof performance of the Olympus OM-D\u00ae<\/sup> E-M1X enables the user to continue shooting in punishing environments such as rain and snow with peace of mind. Compared with the black coating on conventional lenses, the heat-resistant coating of this PRO lens efficiently reflects the infrared rays of sunlight, keeping temperatures inside the lens from rising, even in blazing hot weather, for stable optical performance. The front element of the lens features a fluorine coating to provide a smooth and scratch resistant surface and allows easier cleaning for better maintenance.<\/p>\n

\n Powerful Image Stabilization and Fast, High-Precision Autofocus <\/b>\n <\/p>\n

The M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO lens supports 5-Axis Sync IS, and at 300mm equivalent1<\/sup> delivers the world’s most effective 8 shutter speed steps2<\/sup> of image stabilization, and at 1000mm equivalent1<\/sup> delivers up to 6 shutter speed steps[6] of image stabilization, when using the built-in teleconverter. This powerful image stabilization is also available in the super telephoto range, up to 2000mm equivalent1<\/sup>,<\/sub>\u00a0when paired with the optional MC-20 Teleconverter. High image quality hand-held shooting is possible, making it perfect for wildlife, birding, nature photography and more. Olympus proprietary high-precision lens thinning technology makes the focusing lenses lightweight, delivering fast and precise focusing across the entire zoom range.<\/p>\n
