That doesn't mean we can't have some fun nonsensical arguments and get it to 150 ;)

In fact, to me the 20mm focuses fairly quickly in most situations, only marginally slower than the newest M4/3 lenses that I've used.  It can hunt in low light though. That 17mm does look like a...

Beachy Aleutian Evening  I wish I could've gone a little wider on this first shot, I suppose I may have done better with my 20mm and some stitching.   Or just doing it at another time of day when...

I mean, why have I been wasting my life hiking an OM-D and a couple small lenses up mountains when clearly I would be better served with a real camera that's big, bulky, and gimmick free since you...

Unless collapsability is the most important consideration. I love my 12-50, and it's such a good deal when bought with the kit. 12mm at the wide end is quite noticeably wider than 14mm, and will be...

Stop it down to the same apertures you're shooting your kit lens with.  It sounds like you just haven't experimented with varying the aperture for creating a shallower depth of field.  In low light...

I did not previously own any M4/3 camera.  But the OM-D was the camera that made me finally buy in.  Sure I could've saved more money by getting an older body.  But the OM-D suited my style and...

The 12-50 gets knocked all the time for what it isn't (and what no general purpose kit zoom is), but it's the best all-around starter lens if you ask me.  It has a greater range (12 vs 14mm is a...

Thanks for sharing, those were excellent pictures.  We applied for the Wave, but did not win the lottery.  Grabbing Buckskin permits before they all disappeared was a good consolation prize at...

I figure at this point I'll leave the 12-50 on for most of the hike, or make sure I have another weather-sealed lens on.  There may or may not be water of varying depths, but as long as it stay's...

What route did you take?  Out at White House, or did you do Paria Canyon to Lee's Ferry. The thing about UWA that I have learned from other slot canyons is that most of my best shots will be in the...

Thank you very much for those insights, as that is exactly what concerned me the most about bringing the 7-14.  Canyoneering seems like one of those tough lighting spots that is bound to bring that...

I hate traveling with tripods, but this is the place where it makes so much sense.  I've clearly been in mountaintop mode too long from all my winter hikes and didn't think about that.

Hello all, So I'm planning a 5-day adventure that includes what is arguably the longest and deepest slot canyon on earth. I had been thinking about renting a 7-14 to tag along for some time, since...

I tried to convince some newbies to Alaska that we had palm trees on these islands, but that's a hard sell ;)

The lighting was overcast for the most part, but it is great to finally feel like I have a complete M4/3 kit with the Rokinon fisheye, 12-50, 75-300 and a couple shots with the 40-150 for kicks. ...

I have to say the whole package works for me.  My two favorites are the weather-sealing, and the 12mm end.  I get a lot out of the extra 2mm.  I also find myself very appreciative of the fine video...

Truly, this is not my most artistic moment.  Actually, I didn't even shoot it, but I was able to get my awesome assistant to humor me for some contrived celebratory summit shots, and decided to go...
