and I'm happy to be their custodian.

As pointed out by RobbieBear, FAS means fully articulated screen.  Can't go wrong with 45/1.8 or 42.5/1.7 - the 45/1.8 is smaller/lighter though. Both PEN-F and GX8 have FAS too.  I have the PEN-F ...

I have the 30/1.4, 45/1.8 and 60/2.8.  Of these 3, the 30/1.4 has the best IQ.  In terms of background separation, at their respective maximum aperture, I think it's a wash if subject and ...

(1) Size (2) Weight (3) Lens selection (4) GM1 (5) PEN-F

I use it to record my kids' high school basketball's and symphony band's events. Some in HD and some in 4K. Edit: I live in US

I bought my PEN-F because of its lack of a grip and its very useful front dial for JPEG users like me.  In fact, any time I want B&W (about 50%),  my pick is PEN-F set to Mono-2. All my m43 ...

I have a GM1 paired with 14/2.5.  Perfect street setup.  Love the 14/2.5 warmer colors - nice for low-light/indoors group photos. But the 14/2.5 lacks speed and micro-contrast, that's where the ...

At 8mm, DOF is seldom an issue.  At first glance, both looks the same.  The f8 copy shows better details on the bridge span where the sun is.  Could just be the few secs latency between the two ...

Page 60 of the PEN-F user guide has all the settings.  What do you mean 'reboot the camera'?

+1 I'd add the 45/1.8 into the 85mm(efl) slot.

But there are only a couple of WR prime lens: PL 12/1.4, O60/2.8 (and pre-order Sigma 54/1.4) afaik.  Not discrete due to size. The 12-40 or 12-35 are WR but also not discrete :( My default street ...

I shoot mainly jpeg and B&W.  PEN-F mono-2 is perfect.  Usually paired with silver 25/1.8 or 15/1.7. Dislikes: FAS, inconsistent AF.

What about something in-between.  Olympus outlet has a 45/1.8 for $173.  Otherwise, I strongly recommend Sigma's 60/2.8.  I have one and it's sharper than my 45/1.8.

This is on my list as my only WR prime lens.  I'm also looking for a used 45/1.2 which is WR. But I'll have to sell my 45/1.8 and Sigma 60/2.8 first.  I'll keep my 75/1.8

amazon, adorama and BH regularly have them for $299.  olympus outlet usually at $199(refurb).  I bought mine new from a HK seller for $240 3 years ago.

Target buyers are probably existing 14-150/4.0-5.6 owners who wants something wider and longer.  $900 is a bit steep but not unreasonable; 14-150 goes for $500.

2.5x the price and weight of 300/f4.0.  Maybe 100% more in size.

a.k.a bipod, a human bipod that is :)
