Just tried the 90mm macro from OM-System on a tiny Panasonic GM-1. It's not so comfortable to handle this lens without a viewfinder and/or a tilting display IMO, but it sort of works and makes for a comparatively small setup. The stabilization of the 90mm helps of course. And the colors of the GM-1 are very nice!

Here just some colorful first shots, all taken today (EXIF might indicate otherwise, but I hadn't setup the correct date on my "new" used GM-1):

Nice results! Once a lens gets to a certain size I find that a small body can work well (though a GM-1 is getting pretty tiny :-)

Yes, the GM-1 is tiny! :-) Overall the combo handles quite well. But having no viewfinder (for "face stabilization support) and no tilting display (to enable other means of support) the angles I can hold it well and shake-free are a bit limited.
