This review is from: Opteka 650-2600mm High Definition Telephoto Zoom Lens for Olympus EVOLT Digital SLR Cameras (Electronics)

This lens is an extremely limited lens in that it has a single working fstop, changing magnification is accomplished by pulling the front of the lens out, mechanical connection is unacceptable.

It is impossible to produce an image of acceptably sharp quality. I was very disapointed with the results that I achieved, If you are at all serious about your images don't consider this lens - it is a waste of your money.

This review is from: Opteka 650-2600mm High Definition Telephoto Zoom Lens for Olympus EVOLT Digital SLR Cameras (Electronics)

The lens is made of nice materials and seems to be strong. The lens works best as a viewing scope and for casual photography. It is a little "soft" at the longer focal lengths. Using it with a Olympus E-500, which has a natural magnification of 2x, the lens is a little too much. Again, a casual lens, but a little soft.
