Well, I finally plunked down for my 2nd pro lens. I've been spoiled by the 12-45 pro that came with my EM5. I've really liked the wider short end than what my Tammy 14-150 has and the super close focusing distance. Image quality was certainly better, though the Tammy was already pretty darn good. But I found that as single lens travel solution, I missed the longer reach now and then.
Even as a good deal used, this was the most expensive lens I have ever bought. Still cheap compared to what some of you folks have. It is definitely front heavy on the EM5 and twice the size of the 12-45, 1/3 larger than the 14-150. It should be useful on the bike and when traveling.
