Wildlife photographers can currently save £600 on the OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-600mm f/5.0-6.3 IS lens at Wex Photo Video. Normally priced at £2,499, the Micro Four Thirds super-telephoto zoom is available for £1,899 using the voucher code OMOCT600 at checkout. The offer represents a 24% saving and is scheduled to end on 1 November 2026.

The lens provides a 150-600mm focal length range, equivalent to 300-1200mm on a full-frame camera in terms of field of view. This extended reach is particularly useful for photographing birds and other wildlife that cannot easily be approached. It is also compatible with OM System’s optional MC-20 teleconverter, which extends the maximum equivalent reach to 2400mm, although using the converter reduces the effective maximum aperture.

Stabilisation for handheld wildlife photography

One of the lens’s main features is its five-axis Sync IS system, which provides up to seven stops of image stabilisation when paired with compatible OM System cameras, according to the manufacturer. This helps compensate for camera shake when photographing distant subjects without a tripod, although moving wildlife still requires sufficiently fast shutter speeds to avoid subject blur.

The lens also focuses as close as 0.56m, offering up to 0.7x full-frame-equivalent magnification for photographing smaller subjects such as insects and butterflies. Its optical construction incorporates specialist glass elements to control aberrations, while IPX1-rated splash resistance and a fluorine-coated front element provide additional protection when shooting outdoors.
