I'd prefer the 20mm/1.7 but I'm a prime kinda guy.Ian ET AL QQ I want a small lens ie pancake for that time when I go out on my MTB and don't want to risk smashing the pro lens. Ive managed to get the 14-42 pancake, is that the best,option for small Usabel lens?
Well, the 25/1.4 is better, but he asked for pancakes, so....Which is why he sold it
Panasonic make an equivalent 12-35/2.8. The Oly is obviously slightly longer but has no image stabilization, which is a factor if you're shooting on a Panasonic body (excluding the GX7)Kit lens of sorts the 12-40 seems like the best do anything lens

You'll need to specify what 'best' means. Because as far as size goes, they are the worst.Basically the pro zoom lenses are the defacto choice if you want the best.
Pancake 14 42 for travel.
Yeah, those people who sell up and abandon systems...I don't trust him actually. Flighty so and so

Most of the time I'm looking for great landscape pictures on the web I come across Full Frame cams. D800, 5D2, 6D as most common ones.
Is there any other benefit to it than resolution for big prints or cropping? I guess same age sensors have a little bit more potential in DR and ISO noise?
Background: I have an older Full Frame model from canon and my next destiantion is new zealand. Its a landscape photographers dream and i am pondering about switching to Olympus, because its appr. half the weight and I see many positiv reviews on the net up to "you wont see a difference/better than 5 year old full frame sensors" I can'Ät figure it out if its "good enough" for me - especially with the new handling and learning involved (I can use my equip with closed eyes most of the time).
If you are in silent shutter (heart) mode, some things can't be activated. But I can't remember which off-hand. 32000 shutter perhaps? Anyway my tip is use the camera in loud mode all the time. Just set it to silent when you specifically need it.Guys me again, any specific hidden settings on the em5 I need to be aware of, I worked through the menus last night and changed some like
White balance had a weight towards warm I made that natural
Locked ISO settings to 200 and 4000, have noticed when I was talking pictures of my bedroom last night ISO was always at 4000 only ever dropped when I pointed it at the light, but very sensitive, any of you. Or use auto ISO and manually select it all the time.
Anything else?
