Hello. I will be going on a safari in Tanzania. I was planning to take the PL 100-400 mounted on the Lumix G9, the Olympus 40-150 Pro mounted on the Olympus EM10 mk2 and the Olympus 12-40 Pro in my bag, or mounted on the EM10, with the 40-150 in the bag.

For space and weight reasons, I am wondering if I could afford to leave the Oly 40-150 Pro behind?

What are your thoughts?

You could but you'd miss its IQ. For info when I went to RSA in July I had the 40-150 Pro plus MC14 on my EM1.2 and my 12-40 on my Pen F. Had the Oly 75-300 for longer shots but needed use it much. Had the 17mm f1.8 in the bag which I used very infrequently and this was for Milky Way stuff.
