OM System 50-200mm f2.8 IS Pro Lens for Micro Four Thirds Mount

The M.Zuiko Digital ED 50-200mm f/2.8 IS PRO from OM SYSTEM is a remarkably fast and versatile telephoto zoom, offering a 100-400mm equivalent focal length with a constant f/2.8 aperture in a lightweight, weather-sealed design. Ideal for wildlife, sports, and adventure photography, it delivers reach, speed, and durability in a portable package. The bright f/2.8 aperture allows for exceptional low-light performance, shallow depth of field, and selective focus, while an advanced optical design featuring low dispersion and high refractive index elements ensures sharpness, clarity, and accurate color.

A ZERO II coating reduces flare and ghosting to maintain high contrast and fidelity, even in challenging lighting. Its autofocus system is exceptionally responsive, supporting C-AF during bursts up to 50 fps, making it perfect for tracking birds, wildlife, or athletes in motion. For handheld use, the built-in 5-axis Sync IS system offers up to 7 stops of stabilization with compatible OM SYSTEM bodies, or about 5.5 stops when used independently, greatly improving sharpness and providing a steady viewfinder image at long focal lengths. Despite being optimized for distant subjects, it also excels up close, with a 2.6' minimum focusing distance across the zoom range and 0.25x maximum magnification at 200mm. When paired with supported cameras, it also enables focus stacking for extended depth of field.

Measuring under 9 inches in length and weighing around 2.75 lb with the tripod adapter, the lens remains compact and well-balanced thanks to its internal focus and zoom mechanism. It carries an IP53 weather-sealed rating, resists dust, moisture, and cold down to 14 degrees F, and the fluorine-coated front element repels water, oils, and dirt for easier maintenance. Four customizable L-Fn buttons and four function switches provide quick control over focus, IS, and custom settings directly on the lens. A removable rotating tripod adapter with an Arca-style dovetail and a 1/4"-20 mount ensures flexible tripod or monopod use, while the included LH-82C lens hood incorporates a sliding filter control window for easy access to rotating filters. For even more reach, the lens is compatible with MC-14 and MC-20 teleconverters, extending the focal length to 140-560mm f/4 or 200-800mm f/5.6, giving photographers the power to capture distant subjects with remarkable versatility.
