Stop tempting us with that crazy expensive lens. 
(If I didn't already own expensive lenses for my Canon 5D Mark III, I'd totally jump on it already, since it's about the only way you can get 35mm equivalent of f/2.8 on the M43 system).
I took the E-M1 out on shopping trips this week, so I finally had a chance to shoot it in the situations I actually bought it for (out and walking around). Here are some shots:

Sorry Bobby, but your image of the OM-D EM-1 with that incredible nocticron made my day. I am here in Kalkutta, India, and it is hard to find such goodies here, especially not for the right price. I am having my home vacation in Berlin, Germany, in August/September and both items are on my shopping list. To be always reminded about it, I have made your photograph my desktop background. So I will not forget it.

No apology needed. These new m43 lenses like the Nocticron, 75/1.8, 40-150/2.8, 300/4 and 7-14/2.8 are all as good as the FT and DSLR equivalent … in a very compact size. m43 will be a formidable alternative to the DSLR before too long. It's all about the lenses.

E-M1 + 12-40. The weather sealing of this combination is great. Shooting in heavy rain is no problem.

Wow … the girl with the red umbrella definitely make it a great shot! A little too much sky for my taste but still very nice.

Great image. Curious as to why you shot at ISO 400 instead of 200.

I probably could, but I had my camera set to ISO 400 since I had to use polarizer to clear the haze in the Canyon, and at f/8 the shutter speed was on the slow side and I do not shoot typically under 1/125 sec. Although I could have used f/5.6 instead of f/8 and ISO 200.
