In descending order, IMO: Olympus 17/1.2, PL 15/1.7, Sigma 30/1.4, Olympus 75/1.8, Olympus 25/1.8 I pick my 15/1.7 over 17/1.2 unless the weather gets iffy.

I use mine on (old) coins from countries around the globe when I travel.  It's around $224 today, though I bought mine for less during one of the black fridays a few years back. https://www.bhphoto ...

I voted 'Yes'. Presently, when I need a WR system, I carry both an EM5.ii (+17/1.2+14-150) and a PEN-F (for non-WR and backup ). With a PEN-F Pro, I can do away with my EM5.ii(and future ...

I own neither G9 nor EM1.iii but do own a GM1+GX85 and a PEN-F+EM5.ii.  I've always prefer Olympus's default OOC jpeg settings. Which is 'better'?  It depends I suppose.  However, i prefer the one ...

OOC is more than good enough.  For me.  Save money(assuming you paid something for Topaz) and time(PP) But if I have to choose between #1 and #2, I'd choose #1 - better contrast, less noise.

+1 Awesome compositions!

I have a 15/1.7 and 17/1.2. 15/1.7 when I need a small and light setup (with my GM1). I bought the 17/1.2 to go with my EM5.ii for a complete WR system, together with my 14-150 ii. 17/1.2 IQ is ...

I usually shop at adorama and bhphoto.  And no, I'm not paid :-)

Circular polarizing filter best for bright, sunny days and you are shooting clear blue sky as background.  Or when you want to 'phase' out (window) reflections. For general use, as others have ...

14/2.5 was my very first m43 prime(bought 2015) after researching and reading this review At their respective max aperture, it scores well.  My copy can attest to that.  These days, it's coupled to ...

Excellent set!  Nostalgic to many, I imagine.  Buenos Aires is on my bucket list for the longest time :)

Panasonic 12/f1.4 is available today, PRO-ish in terms of WR and pricing. Olympus 8/f1.8 PRO on EM1.iii/ii or EM5.iii has in-camera rectilinear conversions for 2-3 select FOVs(5mm, 7mm, 9mm?), iirc.

Really nice set!  Except for the tulips which don't look too well :-P When I was studying/living in London in the 1980's, I spent my summers in Amsterdam working in my relatives' restaurant.  Good ...

Oh, my bad.  From your profile, I thought you're talking about your GM1.  Sorry for the confusion.

Agree!  It's my favorite 1-camera-1-lens setup.  Lens is usually my 15/1.7 Yes, it's auto in that there is no way to change sharpness/contrast/saturation/NR/filter, like one could in L mono. Saving ...

Yes, there is.  I have a GM1 too :) On your right-most dial (the one with PASM), turn the dial to 'Artistic' mode - one below iA and above SCN. There, you'll see a few mode Mono modes.  Pick your ...

Agree.  That and the dynamic mono mode though beware of the lag. Both modes complement my PEN-F mono modes.

I don't have the GX-1, so can't comment on it. I bought my GX85 bundled with 12-32 + 45-150 3+ years ago for US$699.  I was intrigued by its 4K photo/video mode in a neat, compact package (it was ...

Congrats! You're going to love it! Perfect companion to any prime lens. My favorite primes are 15/1.7 and 25/1.8 when I'm out and about on the streets of San Francisco - usually the 15 on PEN-F and ...
