    Olympus PEN-F (Body-Only) (Black)

    • It’s worth mentioning that none of my Olympus/M.Zuiko lenses have a wide enough diameter to run into this issue, but I only have inexpensive kit lenses
    • When you read favorable reivews of m43 cameras, the reviewers are almost always using the best lenses.
    • But I was looking to get a smaller system, combined with some nice small Olympus prime lenses, and trying to decide on the EM5ii or the EM10.
    • I like it better than my em 1 (old version), have tried a few legacy four third lenses and they work better than expected even without the on-chip phase detection AF found on the em1 and em1 II
    • Olympus makes some superb lenses but for size and weight, I ended up with 4 Panasonics: 7-14, 20, 12-35/2.8 and 35-100/2.8.
    • Long lenses aren't a problem
    • Finally, I bit the bullet and got good lenses
    • Even Steve Huff, who never met a camera he didn't love, uses the best m43 lenses
    • I understand some pro lenses do have this problem, though I can’t personally verify
    • I decided to give the Pen a try, at first with some of the cheaper lenses.
    • I use it with an Olympus 60mm macro lens, as well as Chinese CCTV lenses
