I have an EM10 and just hated the 14-42 EZ lens for poor resolution and diffraction.

When the 40-150 2.8 and Converter came out I thought that it would replace my Lumix 100-300 but so far I haven't seen one full size image that would justify the cost. I read all these positive reports but not one image has met my expectations when it comes to performance.

Although I also have a Lumix 45-200 I though I'd try the cheap Olympus 40 -150 f4-5.6 as its so small and light weight.

It's plasticky and looks cheap for sure but I'm amazed at the IQ.

If you dont need f2.8 or bothered by cost ,  I'd give that lens go for starters as it offers a much better band for the buck and drops into nicely into a jacket pocket.
