I have such a hard time deciding between the 7-14 and the 9-18, primarily because you can easily find a used copy of the 7-14 for around 850$, but finding a used copy of the 9-18 is darn near...

I don't think they can really sell it for 1599$. The VF-4 is brand new so you get a premium for it now. I don't expect anything higher than 1299$ which I will pay. I want IBIS so its either get the...

Trying out the new 45mm 1.8 on my G1

I also have the 14mm 2.5 and cannot be happier. You can find it easily for under 200$ as there are many sellers who bought it as part of a kit and then sold off the lens. There are many who sing...

I can get a referb OMD for 750$ straight from Olympus with warranty. I wouldn't really call that expensive for that class of camera.

Thank you :)

I absolutely adore the image of the hiker

I appreciate your comment. I know sometimes enhanced or some would say overly processed images are not popular for a more realistic tone, but sometimes I prefer a more emotional one.

thank you and agree, it was one of those days

Thank you, it was a dreary day and this flower stood out among the abandoned dock that was for sale. I nearly stepped on a large snake right after this. Scared the crap outta me lol

Thank you so much

Few images with the 12-50, 14, and 40-150 from around Richland Chambers in Texas

A few from the local ren fest Scarborough Faire. A mix of the 14 2.5 and the 40-150mm with the Panasonic G1

I think you get a 14mm for under 200$ and use the saved cash for the 25mm 1.4
