1. The 12-50 kit zoom for the Olympus is weather sealed, sharp, macro, optimized for video etc. and an unbelievable bargain with purchase with an OMD. If you go for the GH3, the excellent but $$$$ 12-35 lens is the way to go. Either way, the Olympus 40-150mm lens is the way to go for telephoto. It is sharp, light weight and cheap.

2 suggestions for dealers nearby are:

www.berniesphoto.com

Olympus America Inc. 3500 Corporate Parkway Center Valley, PA 18034-0610

I have my doubts I can afford the new Panasonic lenses for the GH3 that are weather sealed, at least not both. So if I get the GH3, one or both lenses will not have OIS if they are going to be weather sealed.

Is Bernies Photo Center new or what??!!! I can't believe I haven't found this place yet. Apparently I haven't looked hard enough. I will be visiting Bernie this weekend. Awesome!
