i also just got the 15/8 body cap lens for the PM2. It's not the sharpest tool in the box, but for just $49 it makes this a shirt pocket camera, withe the small kit zoom in my pants or jacket pocket.
i may get a more capable pancake lens sometime, but right I have an E-M1 on order with the 12-40, so the cupboard is bare.
Don't know if the additional expense/bother is worth it to you, but the body cap lens becomes a macro if you do one of two things. Get some extension tubes and it gains crazy magnification, and becomes a tad sharper to boot. Or you can do the lens reversal hack described here: http://samgoldphotos.blogspot.com/2013/11/bclmacro-part-i-conversion-from-wide.html

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
