This shot is exactly why I bought back into m43, the close focus performance of the 12-40 Pro is hard to match by any other fast normal zoom on the market
Really?

Yes, really. I’ve looked at a number of systems and have not found any normal zoom with the combination of excellent close focus performance, overal optical performance, compact size and great build.
Show me an option with top-notch performance at 0.2m MFD and I’ll take a good look, but I will bet money it won’t be anywhere close to the 12-40 Pro in either size or build.

Below the High Falls at Onaping Falls
Exposure was a little too long on this one, so I have wind movement in the trees.

Couple shots in the city with the OM-1 and 40-150/4 Pro
Second shot is at ISO2500 with the new LR Denoise applied with default settings. Pretty happy with how that works

If you think so. All the examples you posted look blurry and terrible to me.

Same thing here. I don't need real macro, but I do close-ups, mostly with regular lens. In fact, I am on fence to sell Leicasonic 45mm/2.8 macro; it sits mostly unused because regular lenses do a fine job without need for specialty lens. It is hard to beat Olympus in ability to focus close.

Admittedly I haven't followed this thread closely but my goodness, the last couple of pages of wildlife and macro shots are incredible. Very inspiring
