    Yes that what I was thinking but the chap in the shop was highly recommending one. Probably more of a sales thing then lol.

    Thinking of buying a new OM-1 mk2

    Looked at the 150-600mm today compared to 100-400mm and big difference in weight. Almost 1kg heavier and didn't really get on well hand held because of the weight and size 😕

    Going for the Mk2, just need to decide on the lense. Decided against the prime as prefer zoom. So I guess its between the 100-400mm and the 150-600mm but weight wise the other half is going to want the lighter one

    Thinking of buying a new OM-1 mk2

    Thanks everyone for your advice and thoughts 🙏 Weight is a concern but I was looking for something with a good zoom. I will have a look at both lenses mentioned. Thanks, Its such a worry spending this sort of money and then getting it wrong.

    Also be nice to be able to rent/test out the gear before buying but I very much doubt that happens these days 🤔

    Thinking of buying a new OM-1 mk2

    Hi all, I am looking to replace my Nikon P1000 for a new OM-1 mk2 with this lens, Olympus OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-600mm F/5.0-6.3 IS Lens. As its such a lot of money its a bit of a worry if a little overkill as Ive only started getting into photography of birds. I bought the P1000...
