Introduction | 2007 |
The Olympus Zuiko Digital ED 70-300mm 1:4.0-5.6 is an interchangeable telezoom lens for Four Thirds. It was announced by Olympus Corporation on June 26, 2007.
The Four Thirds System is a standard created by Olympus and Eastman Kodak for digital single-lens reflex camera (DSLR) and mirrorless camera design and development.
A kit lens is a "starter" lens which can be sold with an interchangeable-lens camera such as a mirrorless camera or DSLR. It is generally an inexpensive lens priced at the lowest end of the manufacturer's range so as to not add much to a camera kit's price. The kit consists of the camera body, the lens, and various accessories usually necessary to get started. A kit lens can be sold by itself outside of a kit, particularly the ones that are moderately expensive; for instance a kit lens included in a prosumer camera kit is often marketed as an upgrade lens for a consumer camera. In addition, retailers often have promotions of standalone low-end camera bodies without the lens, or a package that bundles a body with one or two more expensive lenses.

It replaces the Olympus Zuiko Digital 14–54mm 1:2.8–3.5, which had a longer minimum focusing distance.

Zuiko is a brand of optical lenses made by Olympus Corporation that was used up to and into the Four Thirds system era.
