I am information gathering for a friend who is just about to buy an OLympus E620. He is looking for a longish zoom like 70-300 and all he can find is the Olympus Zuiko lens. Any opinions about this camera and this lens in partiular before he 'pushes the button':bang::bonk:
 
The lens is awesome. Its heavy, but its a great lens, I learnt to use mine without IS (the lens has none, and my body dont either) and when you master it, it is sharp as a tack.

Some samples :

Not the best photography mind you, but hopefully they show off the lens enough!

The 70-300 is only really 'heavy' against the standard glass/kit lenses. My other half has it and I got to play at the weekend. It's great. I like the manual macro focus option too.

I've got an E620 and it's a great little camera. I also have an E3 and there isn't a lot to tell between them in my view. The E3 has more features but the E620 produces great output for it's price and size.
