I see a clear improvement in 4K content over HD on my TV. Admittedly some of this is due to better dynamic range and colour accuracy in the 4K feed rather than the resolution increase. The main ...

I think 17mm is too close to 15mm; I would have one or the other not both. As it happens I am quite satisfied with my 17mm. My prime lens set is currently 7.5mm fisheye, 9mm bodycap, 12mm f2, 17mm ...

While the pins are in the right place I suspect the protocol is different. I successfully use an Olympus fl-36 on my Panasonic GX1 with a canon flash cable.

We don't know if the owner intended to have that in the hold or if it was checked at the gate due to lack of room in the cabin. Thankfully my mft kit is small enough that this isn't much of a risk ...

There can also be issues with security resulting in changes to the regular rules.

Though some carriers only allow a single piece of hand luggage such as EasyJet (unless you pay for their premium scheme).

Being soft is insufficient, it has to be small enough to fit under the seat and thus not require space in the overhead locker.

I find volume rather than weight is the problem. A 737-800 takes about 180 passengers but only has space in the overhead lockers for around 90 hand luggage size cases. On every flight I have taken...

Sometimes your hand luggage will be removed from you at the gate and transferred to the hold. On some flights there is only space for about half the passengers to take full size hand luggage on...

Many meteor photos actually include star trails. The meteor trails will be straight while stars are curved.

But when you really need 12mm, 14mm won't do.

I have no such issues on my GX1

There are versions for Android and iOS, which means most phones and tablets are supported, but not Windows in any version far less an out of support version like XP. Mark

You might be better off with a faster standard zoom instead. Do you really need the thinnest possible dof? Consider one of Olympus 12-40 f2.8 Panasonic 12-35 f2.8 Panasonic 12-60 f2.8/4 I do have a ...

Unless your family is very cooperative, manual focus indoors may be a challenge. I would suggest looking for the Panasonic 25mm f1.8.  While one of the cheapest m4/3 lenses it is still a bit ...

You can also run out of room to zoom with your feet with WA lenses, especially in towns and cities.

And both Canon and Nikon have major gaps in their line up for APS-C, though mostly at the wide end.

For Olympus the obvious gap filler would be a 150 f2. As they made such a lens for 4/3, they must have a good idea of the potential market size.

It is advertised as 180 degree on both m4/3 and APS-C (Fuji, Sony E). I doubt that is true.

You often don't want much detail in the background of a portrait. From what we can see, your image is correctly exposed for the main subject (the face). If you want more detail in the background, ...
