... thoughthe Oly 25 f1.8 was tempting

I loved that macro mode as well! And under some circumstances, embraced the flare that the 12-50 produced. The 12-40 is another animal. Though I also considered the 12-45 before getting the 12-40 A ...

...stick with m43rds mount Edit... I also had the 12-50. I loved it...then I bought the 12-40. Sharper, CA isn't an issue like the 12-50. Great lens. My suggestion is get the EM1 MKII and spend ...

Thanks for the answer... I wasn't sure about that.

Very nice lens. Very sharp, nice contrast and nice bokeh.

presently, the native APS Z lenses are VERY limited, and still bigger than m43rds. You could go FF Z, but then the lenses are bigger still, AND I think you'd have to use am adapter.

Also consider the Sigma 56mm F1.4. That's next on my list. on the other hand, if you don't mind manual focus, Pergear makes a variety of MF lenses under different names: Pergear, Brightin Star, ...

I thought the same thing! Lend goes in the bin no matter what...

If you feel you can do a repair yourself: https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Olympus_OM-D_E-M10_Mark_II At the bottom there is a YouTube video as well. Of course getting parts might be an issue. ...

Ahhhh... OK... How well does purchasing from the US work?

...purchase a used one. MPB Europe might have some available

... same 20mp sensor, latest and greatest processor from Olympus/OMD, perhaps better ergonomically.

Disappointing for sure. Just me personally, my next step will be to the 20mp cameras. so in the future, either an EM5III, EM1II,  EM10V or Panasonic G90/95. the G9 would be a reach.

His repair was the MKI I believe, like yours. However, I would imagine that the MKII would pretty much the same. BTW, I also have a MKI like you. Around 25k shots and going strong. I purchased a ...
