I've had this lens for 18 months. At this price you can't go wrong. This lens very sharp and great color. "THE PRICE IS RIGHT"!! Yes, it is grey market, but at this price you can self insure the lens. I have bought a lot of grey market items and not one required any repair work except one it!! That was after 10 years of use!

teacher447Agreed, I bought this lens secondhand on craigslist for $500 (no warranty) and it's the lens on my camera 90% of the time. For the money, you really can't beat the performance of this lens.
Oddly this seems to be the only PRO lens from Olympus that ever gets discounted to this extent.

teacher447Just realize that for some grey market stuff, the importer will NOT repair it, no matter what. So you have to find an independent repair shop who will repair it, despite the importers restriction on repairing grey market gear. If you can't repair it, then the purchase is a one shot deal. If it breaks, throw it away. Check the importers repair policy first, so you at least know where you stand.
