I just received Nikon 300 mm F/4 ED in the mail today and these are literally some of my first shots with this lens (plus EM1). I loved my Canon 500mm f/4, but, due to the size of my kit it stayed home quite frequently. My objective was to replace my Canon birding system with a much smaller and more portable Oly u4/3 system. Since it now sounds like the 300mm pro may be released in the 2nd half of the year I bought a stop gap to use until that release. Manual focusing with the Nikon is quite fast and I am very pleased with the sharpness and output so far. Price was $400 for the lens.
I am thinking about selling my 60 macro too, as the 12-40 PRO and 40-150 PRO are both excellent lenses for close-up work if you don't need 1:1 magnification.

Thanks Bobby - EM-5 and the 60mm 2.8 that I sold awhile back. Imagine if I had a 75mm lens
