It would make sense that it’s ‘only’ 1:1 after all conversions, but then I’m less interested tbh. The close working distance is not ideal for the reason you state, plus it decreases DOF.
I thought about adapting the Sigma but I was looking at weight saving, I think it’s something like 770g bs 185g.
I was going to get another EM10MK11 for macro work but just been looking and the EM1MK1 is stupidly cheap, is there any obvious reason not to go for the EM1 for macro.

Yes boxed, spare ( non Olympus ) battery, all the other normal stuff, charger etc
Will check on the shutter count when I get home

Ok, thanks.Currently 2315
Sorry Damian, she definitely wants a silver one.Currently 2315
Mike I’m giving serious consideration to selling my em1 mk1 if you seriously fancy one .I was going to get another EM10MK11 for macro work but just been looking and the EM1MK1 is stupidly cheap, is there any obvious reason not to go for the EM1 for macro.

If you need to give your d500 away to help your conscience I'd try it........Shame really but as I have a d500 and d600, and a rx100 for business travel, I don’t really need another system
I love m43 though so it’s a touch heavy hearted

If you want something with a longer zoom, the panny 12-60mm's not bad either, although not as compact as the 12-32.So, I managed to get a silver em-d10mk2 in silver for my wife.
Thinking about a compact lens for it. Probably best with a bit of zoom tbh.
Is the Panasonic 12-32 a decent lens?
Like the fact its a bit wider than the 14-42 lens.
It's probably all she would need.
Would an Olympus equivalent be better?
Cheers
I had the 12-32 on a Gx 80 was very surprised how good it was, only thing I did not like was the lack of manual focus apart from "in camera".So, I managed to get a silver em-d10mk2 in silver for my wife.

I've already got the 12-60 and it's a great lens.If you want something with a longer zoom, the panny 12-60mm's not bad either, although not as compact as the 12-32.
Sounds good.I had the 12-32 on a Gx 80 was very surprised how good it was, only thing I did not like was the lack of manual focus apart from "in camera".
Nice again, but have you got anything more recent than 2017?

Haven’t moved out the house and done much photography since 2017 tbh probably got a bit of stuff sat on one of my hard drives.
But health issues haven’t helped in recent years .
Guys, I'm looking for a camera for my wife so she can take photos of the grandkids etc.
Ive been looking at the lumix gx80 but She likes the look of the em-d10 mk2.
I've got a Panasonic G80 and was thinking she could "borrow" my lenses.
Any issues using Panasonic lenses on this body?
Anything to be aware of or consider with this body?
Cheers

Thanks for that.I have the E-M10ii (upgraded from the i) and it has no issues with Panasonic lenses bar you won't get the in lens IS or the aperture ring on those units.
I'm pretty sure the JPGs are optically corrected out of the camera - certainly I've never noticed any issues.
My earliest shots with the Panasonic f1.7 25mm were taken JPG only and edited in GIMP which isn't EXIF aware first on the 10i then 10ii.
What I've taken with the P25mm f1.7

Can't comment on the Panasonic 12-32 but I love the little 14-42 EZ lens on the E-M10ii - this and the Olympus f1.8 17mm are my go to kit.

Flickr seems to be having a melt down for me at the moment, hopefully those links work.
Yup - didn't notice that - I've fixed the P25 1.7 linkThanks for that.
Both links are the same...
The 25 1.7 looks like a good lens.Yup - didn't notice that - I've fixed the P25 1.7 link
The 25 1.7 looks like a good lens.
Will likely get that and we can both use it
Have just been informed that I won the Olympus Magazine competition for issue number 61(see page 11), I get to spend time with Mike Inkley photographing the BTCC, very exciting I've never been to Thruxton before either so that'll be cool

Thanks. Dunno, but in the Olympus magazine competition t’s & c’s there’s no stipulations as to what equipment is used, unlike the Olympus newsletter comps.Yay...but how does it work that you won an oly competition with a Nikon
Thanks.Fantastic. Well done Snerkler.
