Compact Telephoto Zoom Lens

The OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F4.0 PRO (35mm equivalent: 80-300mm) is a lightweight and compact telephoto zoom lens that covers a wide focal length range. This high-performance M.Zuiko PRO lens is the world's most compact and lightweight model1, with a fixed maximum aperture value of F4.0.

Excellent Resolution Across the Entire Zoom Range from 80mm to 300mm

This lens shares the same basic structure as the M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 PRO, which is renowned for its high resolution and features a 15-element, 9-group optical construction (2 ED lenses, 1 Super ED lens, 1 HR lens and 2 aspherical lenses). Special lens layouts serve to effectively suppress chromatic aberration, which is common on telephoto lenses and produce high-resolution imaging from the maximum aperture value across the full zoom range and frame while being compact and lightweight. The lens also has a ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating, which effectively eliminates ghosts and flares for accurate depiction even in challenging lighting settings like backlit scenes. Even in High Res Shot mode, this high-performance lens fully utilises the camera body's high image quality capability.

Advanced IP53 Dustproof and Splashproof Performance, and Freezeproof Performance to -10°C

The OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F4.0 PRO lens passes the IPX3 and higher splashproof tests, significantly outperforming the standard IPX1 rating, as well as the dustproof testing. Both have IP53 dustproof and splashproof ratings for further peace of mind in harsher environments. The M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F4.0 PRO lens can also function in low-temperature situations as low as -10°C, and when combined with a dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof camera body, you can shoot in severe environments such as rain, snow, and even dusty environments with confidence.

Fluorine Coating Added

The fluorine coating on the front most lens is effective in minimising friction in addition to repelling water, oil, and dust. When the 40-150mm F4.0 PRO lens becomes dirty, it can be quickly cleaned using a blower or cloth, allowing users to resume shooting right away.

Closest Focusing Distance of 70 cm (at all Focal Distances), and Macro Capabilities with a Maximum Image Magnification of 0.41x

The M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F4.0 PRO lens, like the M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F2.8 PRO, has the closest focusing distance of 70 cm over the whole zoom range. Close-up shooting is feasible at the telephoto end, with a maximum image magnification of 0.41x. Despite being a telephoto zoom, this lens has excellent close-up shooting capability for a variety of purposes. Focus Stacking is also enabled, which captures many photos at various focus locations and then automatically combines the shot. When used in conjunction with a suitable camera, this mode allows you to shoot macro photographs that are entirely in focus from front to back

The World’s Most Compact, Lightweight Model Delivers Unrivalled Portability, and an Inner Zoom System Improves Usability

As a fixed aperture value, 300mm equivalent (35mm equivalent) telephoto zoom lens, measuring roughly 9.94 cm long (12.4 cm long when in operation) and weighing around 0.382 kg, this is the world's most compact and lightest lens. The OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F4.0 PRO lens was built with the convenience of use in mind, and it includes a mechanism that allows the lens to be retracted and stored simply by turning the zoom ring. The 40-150mm F4.0 PRO lens also has an inner zoom technology that keeps the lens length constant across the focal length range, preventing centre of gravity shifts while zooming. Besides, using small, lightweight lenses in the front decreases the feeling of heaviness by eliminating the lengthy lens barrel and weight at the front of the lens, which is common with telephoto lenses, making shooting easier and more balanced.
