I had a long-standing notification request on the 150-400 and BH just sent me a note saying discontinued. I did pick up one on here, but a worrying sign
I just checked on B&H's website. They have two listings for this lens. One says "Discontinued", the other listing says temporarily out of stock, expected availability 2-4 weeks. Maybe it's just a database screw up with B&H website?

I’d have a hard time believing that Olympus would discontinue a $7500 lens that they’ve been selling like hotcakes since introducing just two years ago.

Seems from Facebook that it’s just the OM brand switch and they are opening a new production facility.

Same lens, different SKU number. It seems that B&H was the only retailer that couldn't figure that out...

The OM-1/150-400 combo was a great rig for shooting a polar bear up in Utqiagvik, Alaska. This one was at 150mm to capture an environmental portrait, and it is nice and sharp even from that distance.
That's very possibly one of the very best polar bear shots I've seen from any system or any photographer, super well done!

Thank you! It was a unique lighting situation with the clouds breaking after some rain came through.

Set up the way I normally use these cameras, the difference is only 217 grams.
I'm reading some old posts, and saw no specific comment to this one from April, 2023.
I think your math was bit off: the difference based your numbers is 1,217 gms.
1.2 kilos is a rather significant difference.
