Olympus presenta un obiettivo F4.5 Pro da 150-400 mm con teleconvertitore integrato da 1.25X


Olympus ha annunciato lo sviluppo di un obiettivo super tele-zoom di livello professionale, il M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS Pro. Questo obiettivo avrà una gamma focale standard di 300-800mm equivalenti sui corpi dotati di baionetta Micro Quattro Terzi, con un moltiplicatore di focale integrato da 1,25X che aumenta questi numeri fino all'impressionate valore di 375-1000 mm equivalente, al costo di 2/3 stop di luce.


Se si desidera una maggiore portata, l'obiettivo sarà compatibile anche con il nuovo teleconvertitore MC-20 2X di Olympus.


L'obiettivo sarà stabilizzato e funzionerà con i sistemi IS a 5 assi incorporati nelle moderne telecamere Olympus per una maggiore riduzione della vibrazione. Come ci si aspetterebbe, sarà completamente sigillato dalle intemperie e Olympus afferma che dovrebbe funzionare a temperature fino a -10 ° C / + 14 ° F.


Il modello F4.5 TC1.25x IS Pro da 150-400 mm sarà disponibile nel 2020 e i prezzi non sono ancora stati resi noti.
