Is the 150-600mm worth it over the 100-400mm?

If you need the extra reach for birds and distant wildlife, yes. The 150-600mm gives 1200mm equivalent, but it is heavier and slower than the 100-400mm.

Does it work with OM SYSTEM teleconverters?

Yes, it accepts teleconverters, but the aperture drops further and autofocus slows at the long end.

How heavy is it to hand-hold?

It weighs 4.54 lb and is 10.4 inches long. Most owners use the included tripod collar on a tripod or monopod for long sessions.

Is it weather sealed?

Yes, it is dustproof and splashproof, so it can be used in rain and dusty conditions with a sealed body.

The lens, a cylindrical lens hood and a tripod collar.

The best new price was $2,149 at eBay as of November 6, 2026. Check the price history for seasonal dips.
