The OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 100-400mm F5.0-6.3 IS II is a 100–400mm f/5–6.3 zoom for Micro Four Thirds cameras on Micro Four Thirds, announced by OM System in February 2025. 37 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits wildlife and sport as well as travel. It is a weaker pick for low light without a tripod and travelling light.

Worth comparing it with the Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmar 100-400mm F4.0-6.3 II ASPH. Power O.I.S., OM System M.Zuiko Digital ED 75-300mm F4.8-6.7 II and Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmar 100-400mm F4.0-6.3 ASPH. Power O.I.S..
