Best telephoto lens for the panasonic lumix g97?

The G97 is a Micro Four Thirds body, so a 300mm lens frames like 600mm on full frame. Here are three telephoto picks from the lenses that fit it:

• Olympus M.Zuiko 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO: a constant f/4.5 across its range, like 300-800mm on full frame. The pick if you shoot wildlife in dim light and can handle the size.
• OM System M.Zuiko 150-600mm f/5-6.3 IS: the most reach here, like 300-1200mm.
• Panasonic Leica DG 100-400mm f/4-6.3 II: a sensible middle ground, like 200-800mm.

Long lenses get big and heavy, which is the trade-off on any sensor. For more on what to shoot with them, see wildlife and sport.
