shows pictorially all 6 SHG and all 8 HG Olympus FT lenses.
For me the main attraction of FT and MFT gear is an ample supply of state of the art tele, especially of long tele lenses. What was needed was a camera that could do justice to these lenses. With the E-M1.2, its enhanced sensor, processing power, and improved IBIS we finally have such a camera IMHO. The feature I appreciate the most is basically no focus hunting to speak of.
Before I got my E-M1.2, when it was first available a few months ago, I never had owned or used any FT gear. I started out with the E-M5.1, E-M1.1, E-M5.2, and now the E-M1.2 and still own all 4 cameras. Of tele interest to me are the following lenses:
300/4.0 Pro and little tuna 150/2.0 for handheld use.
Big tuna 300/2.8 and 90-250/2.8 for tripod use.
40-150/2.8 Pro and 50-200/2.8-3.5 SWD for handheld use.
This combination of camera and lenses finally lets me move beyond DSLRs for tele applications, including BIF.
