Great shot!  Now I know I can use my EM5.2 and 17mm for Northern Lights, in Iceland coming September.

However, judging the OP as a new member, like me, he probably is not looking for more than one M43 body or two additional lenses.  I could be wrong though

I too have the 14-150ii.  Plus one Panasonic P&S (24-720mm) always in my pocket.  The problem with the P&S is the lens when extended, has no protection from water or sand at all, and no hood either.  Hate to say it, but a smartphone is a better choice when the P&S could be splashed on.

The 14-150ii and 12-200 are both weather sealed, and should be great for vacations.

I read this thread with interest because I will have a safari trip and I will probably just get a 12-200 instead of changing lenses with dust around me.
