I just hope & pray (because i got interested about this previously reported dial problem) that I will not hit the same thing one day. . .

Just know there are a lot of E-P5 owners like myself that have had ZERO problems with the dials. I do handle my gear carefully, though, so that could contribute to my success. I did get it about 1.5 years ago & have traveled quit a bit with it. Its also my daily carry camera so its not really babied, either.

I know its not an inexpensive lens by any means, but, the 12-40mm ƒ/2.8 is an amazing companion to the E-P5. (& probably any m43 camera!) After that, pick specific lenses to fit your wants/needs. I didn't get the 12-40mm when I picked up my E-P5 at B&H but soon added it to my kit. It will seem big at first on the PEN but with good hand-holding technique, & 5-axis IBIS, it won't take long to get the most out of that combo.

Take care,

Frank
