Originally it was marketed as way for owners of FT lenses to use the new EM-1, since four-thirds was then  abandoned . It worked great in that capacity . Olympus should have considered building it ...

In 2 years it is reasonable to expect the price of both the EM-1X and the EM1.2 to have fallen.  For me, and I suppose others the cost of gear does matter. Changing systems would require buying new ...

You forgot to include the category ......“I don’t care” I really don’t need all the features this camera brings. If Olympus wants to give me one sure, I’d take and probably use it, but I wouldn’t ...

While a nice FL range, f3.5-6.3 seems too slow for a travel or everyday lens. I'm not fond of changing lenses, but I'd rather do that and  use the 12-40 + 40-150

Besides, the GX8 is a nice camera even on sunny days.

I thought about a FF camera a few years ago, looking at a Nikon D750. But I got over it.

I had the 17 1.8 for several years, but after getting the 12-40 I found I literally never used it. The focal length was covered by the zoom , and the extra stop never was that important to me.

I recently went thru the same decision process to complement or replace my EM 1.1. I wanted better video capability , the 20MP sensor, and customization equal to the EM1. The G9 and EM1.2 are too ...

I thought that the Panasonic G7 uses a crop of the sensor for video which would create the appearance of a "zoom" effect.

Thanks, if my checkbook survives the holidays I will like buy one in January...

Or an FZ1000 or 2500 for a larger sensor. KEH has a like new one for $439.

Thanks for the reccomendations. One concern of mine was that fact that the Olympus lenses would not be able to take advantage of Panasonic ‘s DFD, apparently no one thinks that’s a big deal for ...

Recently just bought my first Panasonic body, a used GX8. I have been using an E-M1.1 since it was released, with the 12-40. I also have the plastic 40-150, the 45 1.8, the 60 mm macro in MFT ...

Well ...... I bought the silver GX8 that KEH had listed this morning. They have had them in the past few months , both black and silver in the $608-612 range. ive been considering the camera on and ...

You really think it would take that long, 6 months?:-) Of course if the G9 has to go into the shop, you wouldn't have a backup either

One could, with a bit of SuperGlue , fix the tilting EVF problem once and for all.  Not sure what that would do to the resale value though.

When Olympus decided to retire their FT DSLR camera line, I bought the EM1.1 to be able to continue to use my HG lenses. Bodies come and go, but lenses are expensive to duplicate with a new ...

12-40 is a zoom that covers the range you mention (24-70 in FF). Its not that expensive, with constant max aperture of 2.8. Once you try it, you will certainly want to own it.

Instead of 12-40, get the smaller and lighter Panasonic 12-35. That would cover 2 primes. You could add the Oly 45 and and the 40-150. You could still take the 9-18if you need wider than 12 mm.
