Hi,
I just ordered the 12-32 for my wife's E-PM2 - the 17/2.8 is out, tried it and sold it. It's ok, and quite decent in the centre, but I noticed it often missed focus with the touchscreen. She wants a zoom, and I like the 12mm of the Panasonic, and do NOT like the EZ only Oly 4-42EZ. By most accounts, the 12-32 matches the 14-42IIR pretty closely for IQ, which should be fine.
Can the OIS be disabled on an Oly camera, or is disabling the IBIS the only option? Any other feedback on this lens specifically on Olympus bodies?
Thanks.
I think you will find that the OIS is superior to the IBIS on the EMP2.
I have this lens on my EPL5 and have it set for OIS rather than IBIS.
To use OIS, you must have an EPM2/EPL5 or newer. This will not work with the EM5 or older.

Really, it won't work with the E-M5? Is it that ancient already? Or is this just the first OIS lens without a physical switch
Right, the OIS will not work on an EM5. I don't know if this feature was added with the new firmware update. If not, it should have been.
Otherwise, the lens works just fine on the Oly bodies.

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.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
The Sony ZV-E1 is the company's latest vlogging-focused camera: a full-frame mirrorless camera based the FX3/a7S III sensor, aimed at YouTubers and 'creators' looking to go pro.
