This is the new patent for two Olympus super telephoto lenses: Olympus 400mm F4 and Olympus 500mm F4 lens!
We don’t know when such lenses will be announced, however, as wildlife photographers prefer to use M4/3, I think Olympus is reasonable to launch such a super telephoto lens as soon as possible.
So far, there are two super telephoto M4/3 on the market: Olympus 300mm F4 (Amazon/B&H/Adorama) and Panasonic 100-400mm F4-6.3 (Amazon/ B&H/ Adorama). With the addition to this Olympus 400mm F4 and 500mm F4 lenses, the super telephoto range seems to be a big lineup.
Because Olympus has very strong shake correction, it seems that you can hand it in your hand even with 500 mm (equivalent 1,000 mm) lens!
