Update 6 March 2021: At The Photography Show spring virtual event today, Olympus  UK has confirmed that the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25x IS Pro is now finally on sale. Currently the company is still fulfilling pre-orders, so you aren't yet in the shops – but at least you can now get your name down if you want one of these incredible supertelephotos for the Micro Four Thirds cameras, which we first saw a prototype of at The Photography Show 2019.
