For just one prime, I would highly recommend the Olympus 12mm f2. It is sharp, compact and fast, probably my favorite go to lens. I really like the ability to instantly switch to manual focus if ...

Here's a few of mine

My thought is you want small. I think you are on the right track with the 12mm, it is one of my favorites and worth the money IMO. Next would be the 45mm and then the 75mm. These three primes are ...

Nice shots, thanks for sharing! I have some shots of the Blue Angels from an air show last weekend that I need to post when I get a chance .

I will also chime in and recommend the Voightlander Noctons, particularly the 10.5 and 17.5. I bought mine used and both look brand new. Here are some shots of the Tower Bridge in London from a ...

You came up with a 3 lens setup that will cover your bases. I do think you will want a little wider so with that in mind I still say, the Oly 9-18, Oly14-150 MK II and then one prime. Since the ...

Thank you! I really like that one as well.

My choice for light weight, excellent coverage would be the 9-18mm, 14-150 MK II, and the 12mm f2. If the budget allows, maybe the 75mm prime. You could substitute the 17 for the 12, but honestly, ...

I have never had an issue returning an item with B&H. I would order the same from Amazon, overnight it, and return the defective one to B&H.

Yeah, I go back and forth on Black or Silver, I honestly like them both. I agree that the Gariz looks great on the black. Hmm, maybe I need to change my order. Black is also on backorder at ...

I noticed that mount location as well which is another plus for the Gariz.

Thanks guys!

Some nice shots, I really like the bridge shot!

I am still waiting for my Silver Pen-F, forever on back order, but I was considering the Gariz half case. It seems to have a small grip to it. I plan to use my Pen-F mainly with primes. Has anyone ...

I'm not quite sure what you are asking, the HLD-8 has an extra battery holder. You are able to choose which battery will be used first. Many set it to use the battery in the grip first and then ...

Congrats on your decision and purchase, I think you will be more than pleased! I really like the articulating screen, it really comes in handy. I also have the HLD-8 grip for my MK II and I like ...

I have been following this thread as I too am looking at various options for AP. I found this at Adorama that seems to be a good deal similar to the link at B&H. Anyone care to comment on this ...

Yaelle inspired me to get the Voightlander 10.5mm and to try and get a shot close to her spectacular shot of the Tower Bridge in London. I had a trip to London this past weekend so last Sunday ...

I have the 5 MK II and have a Pen-F on order. My plan is to sell the 5 MK II once the EM1 MK II comes out. I like 5 but I anticipate reasonable improvements with the EM1 MK II and that would ...

Very nice shot, yes, I would say you got it right!
