OM System M.Zuiko ED 75-300mm F/4.8-6.7 II Lens
The OM System M.Zuiko ED 75-300mm F/4.8-6.7 II is a compact super-telephoto zoom lens designed for Micro Four Thirds cameras. With a 35mm equivalent focal length of 150–600mm, it offers impressive reach in a lightweight and portable form—ideal for wildlife, sports, and travel photography.
Optical Performance
Engineered with 18 elements in 13 groups, including ED and Super ED glass, this lens delivers sharp results across most of its zoom range. While peak sharpness is achieved between 75–150mm, careful technique can yield pleasing results even at the 300mm end.
Build & Handling
Although forged from plastic, the lens boasts a sturdy and even-handed heft, particularly on medium-framed OM-D shells. Its inward-focus design keeps the front glass still, suiting it well for filters. Take heed: the lens isn’t shielded against the elements and lacks an inner stabilizer—instead, it relies on the camera’s image stabilization (IBIS).
Use Cases
- Wildlife and bird photography
- Outdoor sports and action shots
- Travel and nature exploration
Conclusion
The M.Zuiko ED 75-300mm II is a budget-friendly super-telephoto lens that punches above its weight in reach and portability. While it won’t rival pro-grade glass, it’s a versatile choice for enthusiasts looking to explore distant subjects without breaking the bank.
