Re: Great lens, bargain for the price.

I really like my 75-300, much smaller and lighter than my 100-400 -- but I often need the reach of the longer lens. If the 75-300 took a TC I'd sell the 100-400.

I recently tried out my 75-300 on my OM-1 and found it to be better than it was on my previous Olympus bodies. The bird detect and C-AF wasn't as solid or as quick to respond as my PL100-400, but it got the job done, non the less.
