I recently upgraded to the 12-40mm and 14-150mm II lenses on my E-M5 from 12-50mm and 14-150mm mark 1 lenses. I tend to take snapshots (often times waiting for the decisive moment), so I am not as picky as many people in this group.

Note, if you live in the USA, bear in mind Olympus' promotion on lens prices ends tonight (Sept. 5th), and the 14-150mm II will go back to $599 from $399.

I don't have many pictures yet in my public albums with the 14-150mm II, but I did go on a whale watch with 3 cameras (E-3 with 14-54mm, E-5 with 50-200mm, E-M5 with 14-150mm II), and took some pictures with the 14-150mm II. It did rain for part of the trip out to where the whales are, so I was glad all cameras/lenses were weather sealed. All of these pictures were taken as JPGs and processed with rawtherapee:
