As another question how does everyone feel about the add on grip? I may get it since the em5 grip is slimmer than the gx7.

Again I can just talk from my experience with the E-M5 and the E-M1, not the E-M5 II. With the E-M5, I never felt the need for an addon grip, not even with the Panasonic 100-300mm. Even less so with the E-M1 with primes and other smaller lenses.

But when I got the 40-150mm f/2.8, and I made the mistake to watch this shootout...

...I really wanted the grip for support with the tele, and it does help quite a bit. Without this lens, I'd probably still not own a battery grip and be happy without.

Ah well I will be doing the vast majority of my shooting with the voigtlanders and adapted canon fl glass so I may want to invest in it.
