I would have thought that it would feel a little unbalanced on the E-620. However, if you were using the lens mounted on a tripod, the light weight of the camera should be an advantage.From my brief ownership of the 50-200 (about 16 hours!) I can see that it is a fine lens which focuses faster and more reliably than the 70-300 and is a bit sharper. However, I still maintain that the 70-300 is an exceptional lens for the money and is much more portable. I am very satisfied with mine.Ron</blockquote>
