Just got my FlashAir yesterday - took almost exactly 2 months from registration to delivery.Note: online rebate status still indicates that it is processing, so this isn't accurate.

VF-2 + E-PL5 is great. I initially bought the VF-2 to take advantage of rebate and use it some of the time, but now I can't imagine using the camera w/o it.One difference between VF-2/E-PL5 and...

I've got 2 rebates submitted that I'm waiting on processing - both submitted online and then mailed in required paperwork. For both I got acknowledgment of receipt from Olympus ~2 wks after mailing...

I got the HLD-6 grip about a month ago to take advantage of rebate and put it on my OM-D to try it out and its been on there ever since. I think the landscape part of grip will be permanently...

Great portraits and lighting! The little 14-42 IIR kit lens is better than alot of people give it credit for and only $50 more than cost of just the EPL5 body, makes for a really small setup. Your...

Ultrapod II? Works fine with E-PL5...gripped OM-D + 12-50 kit, not so much. The Ultrapod I will even work with E-PL5 as long as you keep the lenses on smaller side. If you need to shoot up off the...

Ps and for the primes it depends on what you want to shoot but the panasonic 20/1.7 is a multi purpose workhorse and one of my favorites, and the olympus 45 is another widely praised lens in the...

Excellent choice, I think you'll love it. Last summer I bought an xz-1 and started reading some photography books, and got really into taking photos again. Long story short I now own an OM-D and...

Check out the Sirui T-025 too. Very packable.

As others have mentioned get the 14-42IIR kit - it's only $50 more than just the body only and is a pretty nice lens. I'd also recommend Panasonic 20/1.7 with one slight caveat: for action some say...

Not sure about the 45-would be limiting to me as my only lens I tend to favor the wider end;  however the Panasonic 20/f 1.7 is a pretty versatile focal length and spends lots of time on my OM-D....

Nice photo! Nor have I seen any in use here in NYC either, and I work daily right smack in the middle of a very popular area frequented by many SLR toting tourists. Mostly Canons, Nikons, a few...

picked one up on sale from amazon last week for $255 and change. Was able to cash in some Amex points too. Maybe they'll go sale again?

OM-D and now E-PL5 user. I've just started to use MySets feature primarily as a way to help me to manage and make various settings idiot-proof(for myself :-|) that I frequently forget to change....

Ring is aesthetic only-meant to cover up the mount for bayonet style hood.  oly 45/1.8 has the same piece but is silver.

another +1 for Panasonic 14-45 - unless you need weather sealing or macro then go with the Oly 12-50 as a kit. The Pan 20 get's the most use on my OM-D followed by the 14-45. The 12-50 sits in my...

I'm looking to get an E-PL5 as a second body. The screen aspect was a minor annoyance for me when playing around with the new PENs in a store recently, but I may consider shooting this camera as...

Have you considered the E-PL5 too?I bought the XZ-1 this summer and thought it was great until I got an OM-D and experienced the capabilities and IQ from that camera. I'm now looking to get an...

Ok I'll bite.  I prefer the processing w/ full color version because it seems more natural and appealing to me. The partial black and white, is more deliberate looking, although this might be...

FYI-if the charger is anything like the EM-5 you can replace the "appliance cord" with the removable plug insert from an Apple charger. Makes it much more portable-I think mine came from an old...
