This time set to S-AF mode with the light fading, but still bright enough to shoot wide open at 200 ISO with the stabilisation enabled. focal ratio on both lenses means they’ll share the same exposures, their relative depth-of-field is quite different, with the Olympus lens actually being equivalent to a 80-300mm f5.

Subject that doesn't have good contrast (low light situations) and again the sharper lens loses the benefit, but then again it can offer the better separation if the subject has strong contrast but it is in low light situation. I often shoot surfers and when I do I try to keep the lens under 250mm because this would generally be a sharper shot than 300mm for the 50% or more crop I may have to do.Stopping the lens down just one stop results in visually uniform illumination throughout the zoom range. But, if the surf shots composition didn't require 50% cropping then 300mm would offer a sharp image.
