The price for the upcoming Olympus 40-150mm f/2.8 lens previously rumored around $1,200 – $1,300 just like the 50-200mm f/2.8-3.5 SWD lens.  There is also a 1.4x teleconverter patent pending along with the 40-150mm f/2.8 lens.

The Olympus 7-14mm f/2.8 and 300mm f/4 PRO lenses are also the lenses to be added in the Olympus PRO-series. These lenses are rumored to be released in early 2015 too.
