Re: To those with both EM5-II and EM1

And this brings me to a lens question for you: How would you compare the results you get between your 12-40 and 14-140 II, in their shared focal lengths, when used outdoors in good light?

The 12-40 has an extra resolving of very fine detail - where the 14-140-II is very sharp at F5.6 through the range , the 12-40 at F4 makes things look almost Foveon-like , of course you need to shoot RAW and use a decent RAW converter to take advantage of this (detail wise, I doubt you`d see much diff between the Oly 12-40 and 12-50 with the JPG engine mushing things up) .... there is of course the better CA performance from the 12-40 .
