For me it would be a mark2 version of the 100-300mm OIS but with a constant aperture of f/2.8.

What about you?

300 F/4 to keep it within reason. Utilising UD elements. Expensive yes, but good for nature and of course, it needs much faster focusing than what m4/3 has now. Catch 22.

A 400 F/5.6 would be nice as well, also with UD elements.
