Konica Minolta doesn’t sell lenses anymore. But they keep patenting design they sell to various manufacturers. The one patent you see here describes a 45-250mm f/4.5-5.6 OIS lens that could be used by Panasonic.

The January Olympusmag UK issue has been released (download the PDF here). And there is an article by Warren Fleming about the new 300mm PRO lens. He writes:
“I managed to test the IS down to a fifth of a second handheld in order to get sharp images – which is incredible”
The 300mm PRO lens is probably the best lens ever made for those who need a 600mm lens they can use handheld. There is probably no other lens on the world that can do this.
