Can anyone give me some insight on this lens?

Hey all. I quite literally found this lens a few years ago while fishing up in the Adirondacks. I know nothing about it and was wondering if I could get some insight as to it’s value and whatnot. I can gather that it’s a macro lens for Olympus cameras and that’s about it.

You are correct. It's a micro 4/3 mount for Olympus or Panasonic. Retail right now is $449.99. It's an excellent lens

How well do they retain their value? I don’t tend to see a lot of Olympus cameras around as mostly I see Cannon and Nikon. I also don’t have a use for it, hence why it has sat in my glove box for like two years

Just checked Ebay for you. They range in actually sold lenses from $150-$350. The higher priced ones are mint like new and in most cases come with the box

So definitely not mine as there’s nicks and dings and obviously no box. The glass itself appears to be be in fantastic condition at least. And thank you. I always forget about eBay as I never use it.

Happy to help

Start it at $149.99, do a 7 day auction and make sure it ends mid afternoon Pacific time during the week, not on a weekend. That gets you the most people in front of a computer to watch it

Good luck
