Sounds like a lot of money, but slap in on a 2nd hand $100 e-m10 and you have a travel, portrait camera that will make you happy for many many years to come for the price of an Iphone.

Yes, this is nice and wide would be great for landscapes, this is the equivalent of the classic nifty fifty
Do a pano merge if you need wider.
good thing im a tripod
2nd hand $100 e-m10
Really? That cheap? I had one before and sold it
you often find them for this price on FB market place, I bought a vii on the weekend for my wife for $150. I have the vi it does everything I could ever want, I just buy better glass for it.
The E-M1 Mark II deal with bonus Pro f/1.2 glass has ruined deals like this for me. I'm still mad I missed out all these years later haha. Here's the deal for reference https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/568450. Cracking value.
Me too! 😫
That hurts!
bloody hell how did i miss this>?!>!
Still rocking my E-M1ii. Sold the 45mm I chose to go with it, but it was a lovely lens. Awesome deal.
I love the 45 1.8.
love the 45, but i love the 75 more HAHA nevermind having to take…like 20 steps back to get anything more than a headshot.
That is the downside of this lens. People think it's going to have great subject isolation because it's so long and f1.8, but since you need to step backwards a long way from your subject (compared to a 45), this actually reduces the subject-background separation. Seen a lot of shots from this lens with busy backgrounds. Not a very useful general-purpose lens, although great focal length for landscapes.
the 75 is awkward and has almost no use case but it is the one lens that live on my camera, and it was this best money I have spent.
@Jimothy Wongingtons: The 25mm f1.2 isn't actually too bad on an em5.
I use the 40-150 f/2.8 on an em5mkiii - the lens balances the body!
40-150 f/2.8
i remember having a hands on with this lens and thinking, dang this thing is a beast. very beautiful lens though.
@Jimothy Wongingtons: It's a lovely lens, yes. Don't much enjoy results of using the tele-convertors on it, but alone it produces beautiful images.
It was the 45 1.2 (by redemption)…and oh so creamy smooth bokeh!
I do retain the 45mm 1.8 though…pretty excellent bang for buck that indeed!
Was $2100, are you serious? This hardly compares favourably to a $300 50mm f1.8 lens on a full-frame system.
$300 50mm f1.8 lens on a full-frame system.
f1.8 v f1.2 tho
FF equivalent DOF of 50 / 2.4
while that's a good point..i mean we could take it further and say $50 for a beat up nikkor 1.8D ?
Cracking deal.. Gas kick :(.
Bought
🤔
But what if you want landscape ?
