Verdict
The Olympus Zuiko Digital 40-150mm f/4-5.6 ED is another decent offer by Olympus. It does not excel in its optical and mechanical capabilities but it does certainly give you lots of bangs for your bucks. Resolution-wise it performance generally very good all the way up to 100mm. At 150mm the quality decreases a little but it's still very decent here as well. The secondary aspects such as vignetting, distortions as well as CAs are well controlled.
The mechanical quality of the dwarfish Zuiko is surprisingly high although it's an all-plastic construction down to the mount. Despite the duo-cam design (two inner lens tubes) it does not feel shaky. The AF speed is a bit on the slow side whereas its accuracy is generally fine. All-in-all a good kit lens if its focal length range is everything you need. However, if you're also looking for shallow depth-of-field capabilities this is not the place to be.
