I use as small a bag as possible with as much padding possible. So when I remove/insert into bag, these things pop off easily. I've lost two NEX-7 eye cups.
On the OM-D, this last extended eye cup I lost from it just brushing against my jacket and me not noticing it fell off somewhere on the street.

Jae, you survived Sandy, lost an eyecup in the heat of photographing world news in the city, doh. There are worse things that could have happened. Still I am sorry for you.
Today I did a phototrip with some youngsters and one of the boys dropped his eyecup. I did glue his eyecup with a small piece of dual side tape. It might be a helpful solution for you too?
Took the PL25f1.4 out for run today, or aught to say early morning. This is Dartmoor in Devon England and is a National park. No where nearly as big as national parks in other nations but to us a fairly unspoilt high granite moor land. I think I am correct with it still being common land.

Fujian 35 1.7 - got this lens for free, pretty fun lens actually - quite sharp in the center, but sharpness falls off quickly away from the center making for some interesting effects....most of there are wide open or near wide open.....
Just got mine 2 days ago and it's leaps and bounds better than the EP-3. My daughters had their Homecoming dance tonight and wanted me to take their pictures. Maybe over processed but they like it that way and what they want, they tend to get. Lol...
I gotta say, Jordan, a) you have a beautiful youngster!!, b) you've captured her well, c) that's a helluva lens. Have you used it while wandering about the streets? If not, what are your thoughts about it for that application.

What about the hideous finish? What ever is Olympus thinking with that on the 12, 45, & 75? And to ask $300 more for a black version of the 12? And people (rightfully) complain about Canon's recent sky-high prices. Olympus isn't making itself look very good in my eyes with this policy.
It's a cross between the 135mm and 200mm lenses. Are you saying that the 135mm or 200mm are not good focal lengths either? I think 150mm feels odd only because it was never a common FL in 35mm photography ... even though the old Carl Zeiss Contax Sonnar T* 180/2.8 lens was extremely popular with fashion photographers.

The finish is impeccable. Do you mean the silver color? Are white lenses on a black body not hideous?
Finally got my OM-D and here are a few snaps with the 12, 25 and 45. Nothing fancy, but I'm in love with the camera due to its controls and feel. Loving it more and more each time I pick it up!
