Thanks for the response Dirk...

I have pretty much ended my wedding work (although I did a small one a couple weeks ago), and now focus mostly on corporate event work and portraiture.

I too have completely transitioned to E-M5's, and could not be more please with my results -- although I have gone the Pany zoom route with the 12-35mm and 35-100mm. I actually shot a corporate, three-day invitational tennis tournament a couple weeks back using those lenses, along with my Oly 75-300mm and got amazingly good reults -- my client was very pleased.

One suggestion I might make regarding the macro is to consider the Oly  ZD 35mm macro. It is light, relatively small, inexpensive (of course you have to add the MMF-3 adapter), but it really works well on my E-M5. Below is a sample rose shot I did a few days back using that lens -- it would be great for ring shots -- and can be gotten for peanuts.

Thanks again -- I have shared your website with a fellow professional friend who is pretty amazed with my E-M5.

God Bless,

Greg
