Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 12-200mm F3.5-6.3

Serious photographers tend to be suspicious of all-in-one lenses. The larger the zoom ratio, the thinking goes, the lower the optical quality must be. So what to make of Olympus's latest offering, with its immense 16.6x, 24-400mm equivalent range? This is a huge zoom ratio, surpassed only by Tamron's 16-300mm and 18-400mm DSLR superzooms. Perhaps surprisingly, there's nothing like it for any other mirrorless system, which only offer smaller, less ambitious lenses similar to Olympus's older M.Zuiko Digital ED 14-150mm F4-5.6 II.

To borrow a sporting cliché, it's a big ask to make a lens like this with anything approaching decent image quality, despite its £800 launch price.
