This 50-200mm F2.8-3.5 SWD is a high-performance super-telescopic zoom lens that features the Supersonic Wave Drive (SWD) autofocus system, which enables the lens to achieve an AF speed that's faster than the previous models. ED lens elements are used extensively to correct the color blurring that can occur when telescopic lenses are extended to their maximum focal length, while the digital-dedicated design ensures high-quality performance with clear, crisp images from edge to edge. Close-up shooting capability is superb, with a minimum shooting distance of just 1.2 meters throughout the zoom range. Designed to meet the needs of the professional photographer, Zuiko Digital lenses were born of an uncompromising commitment to performance. The lens features high resolving power, to get the most out of the imaging element. Zuiko Digital lenses allow light to strike the image sensor at a near-perpendicular angle, minimizing degradation and light loss. This large, award-winning lens is perfectly matched to work exclusively with digital cameras so every pixel is properly exposed.

Superb...

Absolutely fantastic glass and fast fast fast focus. I also have a Nikon D200 setup and the Olympus E3 with this lens is just as good if not better for image quality and far exceeds the Nikon for performance. Be aware that this lens on the E3 makes a little heavier combo that the Nikon but it doesn't bother me.

A great lens!

The Olympus Zuiko 50-200mm f/2.8-3.5 Digital ED SWD is very fast and renders beautiful image quality, sharp throughout the entire image and with minimum distortion and vignetting. Together with E3 this telezoom is very versatile, the fast f-stop and the image stabilizer reduces dramatically the need for carrying a tripod. The focus mechanism is nice, lightning fast and quiet. Build quality seems excellent (although I have not yet tested its splash proofing) Highly recommended!

Zuiko 50-200mm Lens

You will not find a long lens with this combination of quality,compact size, and price. The Olympus four thirds system allows you to tote around a far less bulky lens than its large 35mm camera equivalent. The speed of the lens at full extension is fast enough to operate in conditions that many lenses would balk at. Well worth the price.

Great lens...should be...it's not cheap!

I have been using this lens for a month now with an Olympus E510 and have had a mixed bag of results. Most of the issues are with learning how to use it properly. I love the zoom range and the results at each end. Having the extra light gathering has produced good pics where none may have been possible. When I get it right the picture quality is outstanding. I have even used this lens to get close ups that I couldn't do with my macro because of restricted access.

Overall quality is excellent and I agree with most reviewers that this is a big heavy lens but well worth it.
