About Olympus camera lenses sizes and complaints .

I have the E-M10 ..small compact and i can use all m4/3 lenses (normal and Pro) with kit lens .

I have E-M5 something bigger and i can use all m4/3 lenses ( normal and Pro ) with kit lens .

I have E-M1 series a bit more bigger and i can use all m4/3 lenses (normal and Pro) .

I have E-M1X great camera for wildlife ... much more people are discovering the greatness of this camera after 2years .... (this E-M1X has been burned down from the start by stupid people ) , and i can put all m4/3 lenses on it (big and small) .

I bought the 300mm Pro when it first came out ..... a marvel ! a small big lens which blows away the competition ..still after using it for 4 years ? I bought several small lenses too.. and they are all very good for what i do.

I dream about the 150-400mm .. a huge Pro lens .... which is a send from someone out there in the universe .... but a but to hefty on price for me .

So anyone complaining about the size ? Come on .. you have a choice , from small to bigger ..but all still small in comparison to the rest of the brands .

So you have a choice and next to it brand new technology ..... I do not see this with the rest of the brands .

Stop nagging and use all shapes and sizes of lenses and cameras to put you effort into making your photos ...

After reading most your arguments .. I am still behind the first comment i made .

What works for you may not work for someone else.  The statement you made is at it works for you.

I can put lenses Pro and non-pro on all cameras pro or non Pro and also the my lucky charm The Pen - F which i got for a bargain ... (the only one) .

Exactly :-). Someone may not be too happy with less performance from the lower ends cameras. But for you it works, and for you, that's all that should matter.

The system being Olympus or OMD and Panasonic .. was and is a great invention in the camera world ..

Just like several other mounts like Fuji X-trans or the wider diameter Canon/Nikons. Or the Crazy Sony with its DR and AF.

and i still has more than enough attractive points / technology that i do not even think to change for another system .

I am very happy that for you, this is all you need.

That other do people switch ,,,,,, well it is there cash and invested time .

Yup, because for them, some things didn't work out as well as they did for you. Just like you invested money and time in the other cameras in the same system.

Thanks for all the input.

I hope that you all have a great time with your cameras .... because they all can make great pictures if you put enough effort in it.

True enough, everything is good now, and it's a matter of picking what specific features of a tool and preferences one wants and/or needs.

Which is why is a bit silly to tell others that want smaller pro "complaining" a bit silly- because they are not you. Or some of us see the market competitiveness issues by not focusing on the unique selling proposition.

But for you, this is not an issue. I am happy you got a perfect or near perfect match. Looking forward to your photos with your cameras!

Cheers.
