Don't be afraid to update the firmware.  It's well worth it.  The tiny flash drive ncludef with the camera is all but useless for macro photography.  See what others are using.  Lots of great ...

Nice color and framing.

Not ugly but the Tenba Messenger Bag is the better bag.

Look at the Domke F2.

No perfect camera bag because everyone's kit is different.  I have a backpack, and Domke, Tamrac, and Tenba bags.  My    current favorite Domke F5XB holds my EM1 and 5 lenses.  There are tons of ...

That's a Carolina Anole.  Tons on them all over the southern U. S..  I've been catching them for over 50 years.  Nice pictures.

How did you avoid the dreaded purple fringing/blobs I've heard so much about using the Panny 7-14 with an Olympus body?

Love every image.  Phenomenal!

Probably among the finest kit lenses ever made but will be heavy and slow compared to mFT lenses.  Still, worth a try and the optical quality is worth the effort.

Use it with manual focus.  It will take forever to autofocus, unless you have an EM1.  It is big with the adapter but you can't fault the optical quality.  I have mostly retired my FT lenses in ...

I have only played with one.  It is a lovely beast.

Buy something wider.  I recommend the tiny 12-32 Panasonic.

Seriously, any camera will do for your newborn (congrats!)!  You can practice and work on your technique.  You will be taking this na of pictures and video.

You are going to enjoy the 12-32.  Unless your new body is weather sealed, sell the 12-50.

I agree with addlightness that infants should not be given expensive electronic gear.  😎

I am glad you and your camera are ok.  I don't think I would appreciate a light trap either.  Try using available natural light and be inconspicuous.  Don't photograph people who don't want their ...

Good price on the Olympus 25 1.8.

Always for warranty purposes. 😎

I like mine as well.  Not as small as the Olympus 25 1.8, but a bargain.  Takes care of my need for a low light lens.

Wow!
