nice links.
Several are still there days later, if typing “getolympus” into your address bar isn’t too difficult.
Aaaaaand they are gone! lol
bought all 12 @$319, check out my eBay listings
??!!! Where there really 75mm 1.8s for $319??!!!
Running to ebay to search for your listings! 😉
Probably 25mm f1.8.
True. If you look at the URL of the $319 link, it’s got “zuiko-25mm-f1-8-black” in it.
Wth would you buy 12 of them to sell on ebay. They are 300 on eBay…gl
its gone
Damn that’s a great price. 15mm Summilux, 25mm Summilux and this 75mm would be my dream m43 trinity.
It is SWEET…amazing lenses…and SMALL!
I had the other two and just took delivery on a beautiful pewter-silver 15mm from Tokyo…and got a lens that is not sold in the states (in that color) and save $30. Ya gotta love eBay!!!!!!!
Robin wong tested the 40-150:

Screw lack of OIS, I want it!
just buy an olympus body with five-axis..problem solved!!!!!!
Naah, not a big enough problem.
Should have not posted that link. Now I want it. I may even want it more than my 75mm 1.8. That’s not a good thing.
That reconditioned 12-40 for $640 looks interesting. Not available (yet?) though. Will keep an eye out.
I got mine, finally, after checking almost daily. When they appear there’s usually only one available. Mine was in perfect condition except for a slight blemish on the lens hood.
Sure?
“We are sorry, but the page you are looking for cannot be found.”
Finally bought this lens. It’s pretty fantastic, but I do prefer a 135mm on a full frame. It depends on what your doing though. For head and shoulders shots it doesn’t matter. For full body shots the less DOF is important- at least to me. But, this is a great performer and the build quality is just icing on the cake.
Robin Wong test and review Olympus PRO Zoom, 40-150mm F2.8
http://robinwong.blogspot.com/2014/10/olympus-mzuiko-40-150mm-f28-pro-lens.html
this what Robin said;
At this moment in my personal scoring system (well, this is very subjective, so I am declaring this personal), M.Zuiko 40-150mm F2.8 is the BEST Micro Four Thirds lens ever!!
He mentioned this Olympus Pro Zoom, has better sharpness than Olympus SHG F2/ 150 aka Little Tuna ,
Sama sharpness across the frame as the Legend Olympus MZD F1.8/75mm
That 40-150mm looks like a gem of a lens. Great shots in there with excellent contrast, sharpness and bokeh.
IT would be nice if we saw just one image shot at full resolution. One, whole, image, at full resolution.
prettyn sure you can DL his images at 100%
I’m sure it will be interesting if somebody can compare it side by side with the latest APS-C body + 70-200 both fast focusing and image quality
Robin Wong was pretty adamant that you needed the HLD-7 to hold the EM-1 and lens properly.

Huh? It should have been from the beginning of course, but unfortunately you made a mistake somewhere.
