CEO of Om System Kick with New Year Open letter Saying that the company will release a new camera and new lenses. The company has already killed some of these benchmarks, OM-3 Camera Debut And many new lenses. However, away from OM, and an updated lens roadmap has just been published.
The new lens roadmap of Om Digital Solutions, its first updated roadmap since January 2024, is a significant difference: it now has a product photo and a temporary release window for the pre -mysterious telephoto zoom.
The fans of the Om System now know that the telephoto zoom lens will be white, a design that has been reserved only for the company only ED 150-400 mm F/4.5 TC is 1.25x Pro Flagship telephoto zoom lens.

This all possible measure is a professional-grade lens for a flagship, wildlife and sports photographers.
While the OM system is still playing very close to its vest, in which the exact focal length range and its upcoming telephoto zoom lens aperture, clear shape and size, as well as white barrels, suggests that it is the high end enthusiasts of enthusiasts Will be aimed at purpose. And professional photographer. The zoom range will be about 40 mm to 150 mm, perhaps slightly taller, similar to 80–300 mm lens in words equal to 35 mm.
In an ideal world, the new telephoto zoom lens ED will be more economical than 150–400 mm F/4.5. Given its short focal length range, it can also provide a rapid maximum aperture to photographers. Seeing how the new zoom compare with the current ED 40–150 mm F/2.8 Pro will be particularly attractive.

While these boards were minor updates across the board, they were not painted on any lens roadmap. The OM system is constantly updating some of its old lenses, adding better weather resistance and better image stabilization, so photographers should not be surprised whether this year should drop more “mark II” lens.
However, the fact that a new lens is coming soon, the OM system should be given welcome news for photographers.
