Olympus M.Zuiko MC-20 600mm
Doubling the reach of compatible lenses to a 1200mm equivalent while adding only 150g, this teleconverter maintains fast autofocus and 5 stops of image stabilization for sharp handheld shooting. Its 9-element optical design with ZERO Coating suppresses aberrations, and the fully weather-sealed construction matches the ruggedness of M.Zuiko PRO lenses. This is best for travel and wildlife photographers using Micro Four Thirds who need extreme telephoto reach without sacrificing portability or weather resistance.
