Adorama keeps shipping wrong items

ADORAMA is awful and has made so many mistakes with my orders that I'm never using them again.

My used Olympus lens review

very clear lens, I am using it on my Panasonic Lumix G95 I got all kinds of nice comments on the shots I made with this lens... So far I am liking the results from this lens better than the 100-400 panasonic I purchased at the same time.

Olympus M Zuiko Digital ED 40-a50mm...Zoom Lens

I am new to adding lens to a camera since my previous cameras were point and shoot. With the few photographs I have taken with this new lens, I believe it will work out very well and help me capture the images in a manner I am accustomed to with even greater detail and clarity. It was easy to attach and did fit my camera. I am adjusting to how to use the lens for zooming in to my desired subject (in particular thus far roses on my rose bush) and the use of the camera which is also new. Therefore, I have limited results thus far using the lens.

Works well

Very small, very light. Price can't be beat. I like it a lot. But I wish it did come with a lens shade...

A nice lens for a nicer camera (Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II 20.4MP Mirrorless Camera)

I bought this autofocus lens on sale for $99 which was $100 off. It was bought for my Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II 20.4MP Mirrorless Camera, which was also on sale for $849. You can spend $1,000 and get a lot less camera but I spent most of this year looking for a new camera and waiting for the right price, I don't see how I could have gotten a better deal on either the camera or this lens.

Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/4-5.6 "R" Zoom Lens

Lightweight. I used this lens to shoot a wedding on one camera body and the 12-40mm f2.8 PRO lens on another body. I was fairly astounded at the quality of the images. Other than flare control, I was hard-pressed to tell the difference! It is a bit slower, however, the IBIS helps some in this regard.

Great Value lens

A very good lens and an excellent value. At the sale price I purchased this lens I do not believe you could get a better "bang for the buck."

Great addition

I am no professional or expert by any means, but I found this lense to be a great accompaniment to the 14-42. I can cover a lot of ground with just these 2. If youre looking to add a 2nd lense to your collection, this is a great choice.

Awesome pictures

Normally the assumption is to get great pictures, one has to have expensive lenses and/ or cameras. I've learned this is not true after getting this affordable lens. I've used it to take Fall pictures and the images I got are awesome. I will definitely recommend this lens anytime.

Is a good budget option, considering how much lenses are, this is a good light weight option for your camera.

Great little tele lens!

I was not expecting 'great' from this inexpensive lens from Olympus. But I was pleasantly surprised! It's sharp and lightweight. The ability to manually override the focus is a plus for that exacting image. Highly recommended!

Underrated little lens.

Lens body is nice and light (not metal body but thats okay) which is perfect for the smaller micro four thirds cameras like, EM5 series, PEN series, GH series etc. Sharpness is stellar. I would say its about as sharp as my M. Zuiko Pro lenses. Perfect lens to keep in your arsenal.

The Right lens in So Many ways.

I like to travel with my camera, the E-PL7... the size & weight of this lens is perfect for me. My 'experienced amateur' skills are satisfied, whether doing wildlife & landscapes events & architecture. It has expanded my telephoto range without weighing me down or straining my budget.

Good cheap lens. I really enjoy using it and it takes fine pictures. I really like the price point and what it allows me to do. Its a lens for taking photographs, not showing off to people you have it.

Great lens for the price, I like that as a beginner, it helps me understand which type of lens I would use more. My first good shot was a humming bird that I took. I was very happy with it for my new hobby!

"Zuiko MFT Telephoto 40-150m"

The Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/4-5.6 "R" Zoom Lens, Black, for Micro Four Thirds System, is everything I expected. I've used Zuiko glass since film days and never been disappointed. The Adorama price and service were outstanding. I live in Canada and can't believe how easy it is to process an order online and get it so quickly. The lens is light and takes a standard 58mm filter. It is the perfect complement to the OMD Olympus cameras and the logical next step after a 14-42mm kit lens.

Compact but powerful

This is a great light weight, lens especially when you compare the size and weight of a traditional DSLR lens, practical for travel and street photography, Smooth and accurate, yes you can get more solidly built lenses but this price, its great value, five stars at this price.

Punches well above it’s price-point

Surprising how nice this lens is, especially given the price-point*. Yes its a value built lens but the fit and finish, and photographic results it is capable of belie that. Additionally it’s lightweight which is also a plus. Exhibits responsive focusing when mounted to my Olympus Pen EPL-8 and produces tack-sharp subjects with awesome bokeh backgrounds (and foregrounds). In short I love this lens and have NO regrets about it’s purchase. *Coincidentally it falls below our “spousal approval required” purchase amount threshold so the CFO’s approval wasn’t even required for this bad-boy!
