Has anyone done some test to compare the Olympus 75-300mm II at 300mm, against the 40-150mm f/2.8 + 1.4x teleconverter at 210mm cropped to match the former?
I currently have a 75-300mm II and I'm looking to replace it with a faster lens. I have the budget for the Olympus 300mm f/4, but I think the 40-150mm f/2.8 can be more useful for me overall. Just when to know what I should expect from the 40-150 + TC, and if I would really lose any reach.
Thanks!
How lucky that I was wandering by. That is exactly what I did.
My Review: 40-150, vs 40-150 + TC, vs 75-300.
Here you go.
Olympus OM-D E-M5
Olympus E-M1 II
Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 9-18mm F4.0-5.6
Panasonic Lumix G Fisheye 8mm F3.5
Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-50mm 1:3.5-6.3 EZ
