The OM SYSTEM ED 100-400mm f/5-6.3 IS II is a supertelephoto 200-800mm equivalent zoom for Micro 4/3-mount cameras. Key features include:
Ideal Sports and Wildlife Lens. Weighing in at only 2.9 pounds, this supertelephoto is incredibly portable for the length you get – up to 800mm and even as long as 1600mm with the MC-20, allowing you ultimate reach out in the field.
Advanced Feature Set and Optics. Using advanced optics, the 100-400mm IS II is equipped with four extra-low dispersion lenses, two super-high refractive index lenses, and two high refractive index lenses for edge-to-edge sharpness and minimal ghosting and flaring, even in backlist conditions. This lens not only gives you incredible reach but it also provides a max image magnification of 0.57x (35mm equivalent). This, combined with a 4-foot shooting distance, makes this lens suitable for certain macro subjects — a unique feature for a supertelephoto lens. This lens also supports the focus stacking feature in compatible OM-System cameras.
Robust and Reliable Construction The 100-400mm IS II is designed to take on the elements with hermetic sealing that provides IPX1 splashproof protection. The internal zoom keeps the lens at just 8 inches and it is evenly balanced so that it can be easily hand-held out in the field. This IS II edition of the 100-400mm offers improved optical image stabilization that compensates for 4.5 stops throughout the entire range of the lens.
Try it with These Micro 4/3 Cameras This lens is compatible with OM System Sync IS for up to 7.5 stops of shutter speed compensation with compatible cameras, such as the OM-D E-M1 Mark III. As of this writing, this combined lens/camera IS from OM System is considered to have the “world’s most effective stabilization performance”.
When pairing this lens with a Micro 4/3 Panasonic camera with stabilization, only one or the other will function. They do not work together. However, the IS Sync on this lens will work with OM System IBIS.
Yes. It is also rotatable (360 degrees).
Yes, this lens is suitable for very high speed shooting when paired with the OM System cameras that have this feature.
