"Plastic fantastic"

It's been a month since I bought into m43 system and since then I have been researching small and budget-friendly lens that I can carry on my sunset strolls and don't have to worry too much about gear safety.

 

You know I am a big fan of telephoto lens and during my research this lens caught my attention - the Olympus 40-150 R f4-5.6, and because of its all plastic construction, people also give it a nickname called "Plastic Fantastic". This little lens checks all the boxes for my casual need - Very small, very light weight, good enough reach (80-300mm equivalent), decent image quality, and most importantly, it is CHEAP. I paid $75 for this lens in mint condition.

 

This image was taken using this lens on one of my recent sunset strolls. I kind like the way it renders this scene and yes I also enjoy shooting people and landscape together!
