Who is using m4/3 cameras here? Post some photos. Here's one taken with my Olympus OMD EM5.

I used to have an Olympus EPL-1. It was stolen during a break-in the day before my wife & I were to leave for a trip to the UK. Bought a Canon DSLR to replace it. However, I'm thinking about switching back to the M4/3 format. I've got a lot of problems with my neck & shoulders and a lighter camera is a better choice for me right now. Looking at either the OM-D E10 or the EP-5.

Lovely sunset!

I have an E-P2 and over the three (four?) years I've had it, I've acquired a range of lenses for it. I'm *thinking* of buying one of the OMD bodies now to make the lenses a little more useful since I almost never use the E-P2. When I need digital, I almost always go to my Fuji X100.

For a guy who almost always uses film, I have an embarrassment of digital riches right now!

I'll post something here from the E-P2.

I've got the GF1 along with several primes and two zooms (including the original 14-45mm). I really enjoy using the camera, a camera I was forced to buy having discovered to my chagrin that I'd left my camera bag on the bed while checking in for a 6 week holiday in Europe..... At some stage, I'll probably upgrade to the GX7 or successor, but there's no rush. For ultimate pixel peeping quality (where speed is not of essence...) I've got the Sigma DP2M.

It's the perfect combination of size, quality and flexibility. Most of the time it lives with the 20mm attached, though for people shots the Olympus 45mm lens is a stunner.

Mondrian would approve, P. C. and so do I.

Here is a recent picture with the Olympus Pen E-P2. It's about 50% of the original frame and, in cropping it, I somewhat tidied it up in Paint Shop Pro.

I'm not sure why, at least on my screen as I preview this posting, the right-hand frame is missing.

EDIT: I have made the image smaller, to fit better.

Great pictures, guys. The picture below was taken with my Olympus OMD EM-5 and the kit zoom lens. I later added the 12mm and 45mm primes.
The EM-5 is a well made and very capable camera.

Philip -- The photo may exceed some maximum displayable width. When I copy it from here to my computer, the right border is there.

Great pics, all.

Thanks, James: you were right. I originally used the Flickr code for "Large" but have switched it now to "Medium" and it's all there.
