LOL, you are critical of UWA bokeh? I own the 8-16, a great lens but not one that anyone should pick if they want bokeh.

Good. You deal with flare, unprotected front lens and/or front heavy weight. Myself? Love the Panny 8-18, a very nice lens!

I felt that even going from a GF1 to a G3 was a big step up body-wise. The GF3? Not one of my favorite camera experiences (though it was not bad).

Agree with you 100%..makes no sense to have a camera sit on a shelf or in a drawer not being used. Also, the pics taken with the cam when you used it help define the value to you. Still, it is a ...

Great video of Joe. Been a real treat watching him grow as a musician. In case you've not seen this, check out Joe at 13. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VvHEyAnS0bs

Wow, what a "haircut " price-wise, unfortunately the trials and tribulations of Sony releasing next gen cameras so frequently!

Where's Waldo????

The GF1 is ancient. The newer m43 cameras are MUCH better. If you want a bigger camera and bigger lenses, buy the Sony. Also, the Sony will perform better in low light. Myself? I started with a GF1 ...

+1. I have not owned the 12-60 but do own the 12-40 and it is one of the best lenses Ive been lucky enough to own. Been using the 12-40 with Oly bodies E-M5 and E-M1.

Enjoy. Was a big step up for me as my previous m43 UWA was the Oly 9-18 (which is pretty good). Re macro, LOVE the Oly 60mm!

The RX10 IV is definitely a great camera and I love mine but do find it lacking for UWA and low light photography.

My limit experience (reading reviews) is that the 12-100 is inferior vs the 12-40. More important,  if already owning the 12-40 and 40-150, why jettison those lenses for the 12-100? With the TE, ...

Why would you want to get rid of lens that are easily among the best for m43 cameras to buy inferior lens??? The 40-150 f2.8 is spectacular,  as is the 12-40 f2.8.

I love the 12-40 when on my E-M1 and liked it on my E-M5, which I used with the grip addition. Did notblike the lens on the E-M5 without the grip. I briefly used the 12-40 with a Pen F..didntblike ...

What is your budget? Willing to buy used equipment or do you only buy new? Need/want an EVF or are you comfortable with just an LCD?

Me spreading hate on an online forum? My apologies if you feel that way. Definitely not my intention! I see my response as somewhat curmudgeonly and an impulse response, thinking that you had not ...

Chris, Agree with what you posted, good points. I would like to add that some cameras will perform better in the catagories you mentioned (travel, landscape and people) in low light while other ...

As the camera with arguably the best AF, there is ample information, both text and video) highlighting how good the AF is and compares/contrastbwith other cameras. What is the problem? Dont know ...

Thanks for the comparison. Interesting read. Myself? Waiting for my E-M1 to die (I infrequently hear a grinding noise and it temporarily stops working). Pulling out and then returning the battery ...

I'm not impressed. If you ARE so smart, share with us other photography companies that will soon declare bankruptcy. Boasting after the fact is not particularly special.
