Olympus Zuiko Digital ED 18-180mm f/3.5-6.3

A perfect lens I had one of these lenses before and sold it with my old E-510. In going over my old photos I realized how great a performer it is, particularly at the longer focal lengths. I now have it permanently on a E-420 and carry this great combo on all trips. It is better quality and lighter than my Nikon lenses. It covers the range of 36 to 360 mm in standard 35mm terms and I would need a combo of two nikon lenses to be the equivalent. I hate to have to change lenses in the field. I also love the four thirds format

Unbelievably immaculate, as new. The item was in immaculate condition, as new. The description that was exactly as advertised. Very happy as it was very hard to find this product due Olympus stopped producing it. So when I found it on eBay, I was overwhelmed. Thank you so much.

Has all the wide angle and zoom that i need I usually carry two camera bodies and switch around three or four different lenses. This lens is lightweight and has all the wide angle and zoom that I need. Plus and this is a big plus, the aperture is larger at 62mm compared with the 58. Sure for the 180mm but it helps a lot for the darker environments using a typical 45mm setting. The internal lens elements look clear as are the pictures. The mechanism feels smooth - no grit, no free play. Very nice lens - wish I had purchased it years ago.
