Your pictures look dark and shadowy...

Hi & thanks for the review of this lens, which I very recently bought new and is my new default lens. I watched your demos and wonder if the videos would focus better, if not perfectly, if you used an OM-1 rather than an OM-D? I guess I can find out for myself, but wondering if you have a POV. thx!!

I can only assume that copies of this lens vary in the image quality produced. I've had two and sold them on, your image quality is far better than I achieved..

Just did this exact hike a few days ago without knowing what would expect us. It was really tough! Thank you for sharing!

I enjoyed your video. Nice and simple and told me all I need to know about this lens.

with how good the AI denoise is now in adobe camera raw low light shooting is much less of an issue than ever before. I know it still struggles in very dark scenes such as astrophotography but scenes with lots of mid tones it works very well. I've shot at iso 12,500 and the AI denoise removed so much noise you would think it was shot at iso200. Great video!

Same experience with cf express sandisk 128 gb, hot card after 16 minutes 4k video shoot. sd card didn't overheat after 29 minutes of 4k video shoot nor did a xqd card after 29 minutes of 4k video shoot. All with a nikon z6ii

First contact... liked and subscribed 🙇‍♂ I like your channel, you should have way more followers 👍

I enjoyed your video. I'm looking to buy this lens so, I'm checking out reviews. They all seem favourable so far. The 100-400 is out now. I'm also looking at that one.

cant belive I i only now found this!! I used to live in Trüllikon and this just gave sooo many memories. I went to all these places in this video for at least once and I just wanted to let you know how grateful I am for this video🙂 its nice to see other people to visit and enjoy such an unknown and beautiful town!! I indeed remembered everything i did in these places as a kid, especially the munot tower!! I went there on a school trip and remember it like it was yesterday. so I want to thank you again for this kind and nostalgic video!!(even if its 2 years late!!!)

I enjoyed your journey, and also seeing how the EM5 ii shoots. I spent two weeks in Switzerland last summer, including Zurich and three Alpine areas. And earlier, briefly in Amsterdam, I rented a heavy city bicycle and rode to the ocean and back. The scenery and people were lovely: I must return to Holland!

Thanks for your thoughts, comparisons, and shots. I bought this lens used in mint condition about a month ago. I'll use it for all the use cases you mentioned, including in the Himalaya next month. I've practiced vlogging with the 9-18mm lens using an OM-5, experimenting with focal lengths and especially checking facial distortion at the widest angles. I'm also trying with video to first focus on me, then scenery behind me, and seeing if I can smoothly exit the frame and turn the camera forward, towards the scenery or trail ahead, perhaps with a zoom-in, and later re-enter the frame smoothly. I turn the flip-out screen during this process too. I'm not sure yet if I can succeed, meaning I may need to stop the video filming, and restart it. I've also practiced quickly assembling a bipod from my trekking poles (two wrappings of rubber bands to join them at the grips). Affixing a short aluminum extender rod to my camera's 1/4" tripod mount, I then stuff the rod between the poles such that it is squeezed and stabilized between the pole grips. This is working well. I can stabilize for at least 2.5 seconds with a 150mm focal point on a different lens, and the IBIS produces sharp photos with no shake. Maybe I can combine this stabilized platform with the filming maneuver in the second paragraph above. Any thought on this process? The short length and light weight of the 9-18mm lens facilitates this.

Great to see so many photos

Great, just got this lens, not sure the quality yet, but absolutely love the compactness, which is very unique in wide angel lens (with zoom).

5:57 Wow, awesome photo! I assume it was a clear day, but the sepiatone makes it feel very moody.

5:17 Why 18mm look blur when shooting video compare with 9mm?

This lens was the reason that I bought an Olympus EM5 m2. It is weather resistant and none of the SONY lenses were in the equivalent 18-200 APS-C range. I still have my SONY-s and just bought an a6700 but the Olympus is the camera I take more often than not.

The fact that you’re able to zoom so far with a lens that small is impressive enough. Lowlight with a dated em1.1 is very impressive. Makes me want to consider this lens for my em1.3 as a walk about piece of kit. Great review!

some very very nice photos

Den Text kann ich nicht verstehen, weil englisch, aber ihre Fotos sind recht gesättigt den Farben und in den Tiefen zu dunkel, meine Meinung. Flugzeuge brauche ich nicht, Stinker und zu laut. In den Vögeln sind im Schatten kaum Zeichnung zu sehen.

Thank you for mentioning Panasonic and Tamron lenses. Through many searches, you are the only place where I found mentioned other brands. I do have a question though: Would the Panasonic lens work well with Olympus EM5 iii camera?

Promo-SM 💃

I just picked up this lens, I'm excited to get out and shoot with it. Should be a nice daytime lens.

Zijn deze beelden in 1080p of 4K geschoten? Ik ben mij aan het oriënteren om ook de Z6 ii in combinatie met de 24-200 aan te schaffen.

You took nice photos. I would also consider the Olympus 100-400 f5-6.3 and the 40-150 f2.8 Pro + MC20 as alternative setups.

Please do more reviews ... you are doing well sir ... :)

Love this lens for the same reasons as you stated; versatility, size & weight It`s perfect for just walking around taking pictures of everything from nature to architecture and abstract elements etc Mounted on the omd e-m5 m3, the creative possibilities are also excellent Have other camera systems which is also good and more expensive, but have to say, this olympus combination is close to perfect for my style of photography 👌🏼✨

Hi I have the same lens and camera as you which you just reviewed and I also enjoy trying to shoot airplanes but I don’t think my settings are good enough. Could you recommend the settings you used at the airshow when setting up. Regards Jeff

My wife and I both have this lens and really like it a lot, for all the reasons that you mentioned. It pretty much lives on my EM-5. I almost sold it to get the 12-200 but decided against doing that. Both the price and size difference wasn’t enough to justify switching for me. Thank you for a very good review of this lens.

Bremgarten 🙂

For those who are considerting 1" superzoom, you can do better with M43, which are generally smaller, lighter, cheaper, and better PQ

I have this lens, too, although I haven't been keen on zoom lenses in the past. I do take it outside and the weather sealing is a great feature. Thanks for sharing your experience with it.

Hello. RUclips showed your video for me to watch. I heard your remark about AF-MF switch - the more expensive Pro lenses have a mechanical clutch. For lenses such as this, I normally set to S-AF-MF - that means half press of the shutter button will perform S-AF but you can still rotate the focus ring to MF any time

I love the atmosphere at this place. Thanks for sharing your adventure. Beautiful footage. Big LIKE!!!

I don't have this lens but I really enjoyed watching the photos and video footage from this lens. Big LIKE for the review. Greeting from Singapore.

Interesting commentary. Like you, I have the Olympus 75-300mm which is a lot of fun to use. But instead of the 14-150mm I have a (used) Lumix 14-140 F3.5-5.6. Very similar, quite sharp and also highly recommended. For a wider view, I can recommend the new Panasonic 9mm F 1.7 which is very small/light, and ideal in low light.

Wow, the scenery out there looks amazing. Fantastic hiking adventure and a really nice film!

Landscapes are simply phenomenal here, absolutely phenomenal my friend!

Hallo Dirk…Dank je voor de bijzonder praktische ‘bespreking’ van deze lens die ik ook van plan ben aan te schaffen. Ik heb ook de ‘aloude’ Olympus FT 50-200 2.8-3.5 en de Panasonic 75-175, allebei geweldig, maar wil toch nog wat meer reach aangezien ik veel telefoto’s maak. Heb je verder nog tips m.b.t. instellingen die je gebruikt? Ik heb de Omd-em 1 mark 1 en de Panasonic G80. Alvast dank🌞

I got some great photos with this lens. And it's good value compared to more expensive pro zoom lens. Were you hand holding the camera for those shots? Great review, and thanks for sharing.

Great little review. Impressive pics of the planes. The shot at 2:54 is fantastic

Nice review, thanx, I have Mark I version, bought seconhand. On short end is very sharp but over 250mm is rather soft. I like this lens but best range is 75-220mm.

Solid lens when light is good. Love how light and compact for the reach it gives.

That looks like a beautiful trail and a fantastic adventure. The Lumix really delivers great shots!

Gorgeous upload man, shots are simply spectacular as well as narrative par! 🔥

Hello, greeting from Singapore. I use this lens with my Olympus OMD EM5 mark i camera. And it's been almost 4 years of using it and I've found it to be my favorite lens. All video recordings and bird photography on my RUclips channel, I use this lens. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences about this lens. 👍🔔. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

This lens is indeed surprisingly good and fun to use. Excellent value (I got mine used for less than €300). It works even better on the newer cameras (e.g. OM-1) with better autofocus and IBIS. I do miss weather resistance, which would make it more all round.

Thanks for sharing, love your shots, especially the planes. I went to our local airshow in NZ with my 40-150 2.8 Pro. The shots were very sharp also, but you got closer with your lens, so I'm envious. Keep up the great work and looking forward to the next one.

I watched your review and at the end you briefly mentioned the 100-300 from Lumix. I have photographed with both the Olympus and the Lumix, where the Lumix performs considerably better. Not in the least because it lets more light through, which means a considerable gain in shutter speed for telephoto. I do not miss the 25 mm less zoom range. The OLYMPUS MFT 40-150MM R F/4.0-5.6 ED is a very good and inexpensive alternative. Converted to the 35mm standard, a range of 80 to 300 millimeters, which is already a respectable telephoto range.

Superb Photos I bought this lens off eBay and was amazed at the weight and Reach you get you could carry this all day no problem I was so impressed I bought the Olympus e-m1 mk2 and the 300f4 off Panamoz Fantastic for Wildlife who said micro four thirds is dead
