I am and always have been interested in this lens. I have the panny 25 the oly 45 and would like to add this one but I have found since getting the oly 12-40 pro, I am using the primes less and less so really questioning if getting the 75 would give me anything that getting the upcoming 40-150 pro would not. So despite the fact that reviews like this one always make me want to give into gas, I think I am holding off to see what the quality of the 40-150 pro is going to look like

I also used to feel the same when I got the 12-40, but after the novelty wore off, I went back to using the primes because of the size/aperture benefits, while I also regularly use the 12-40, unlike the 12-50 I had before which was hardly used.
