An absolute star
I started off with the 70-300 mm on my E-520, and although I got a lot of good images with it, the 50-200 SWD was my object of desire.

Olympus 50-200mm Lens Review
I originally had no desire to buy this lens at all. I had just bought the 7 -14 mm Zuiko super wide-angle lens on my Amazon Visa Card and did not want to take on any more debt…

Great and reasonable
This lens is a beauty. It is so sharp that it is like having a macro lens that you can use from 40 ft. away. While it is not inexpensive. when compared to the Canon 70-200 2.

Great lens…should be…it’s not cheap!
I have been using this lens for a month now with an Olympus E510 and have had a mixed bag of results. Most of the issues are with learning how to use it properly.
