Hey all, I'm already part the L-Mount Forum community. I also love MFT mount since they're lighter and easier to move around with. I currently use the om-d e-m1 iii & G100D.
 
:welcome-to-forum:
Since around 4 weeks I use the Olympus EM1.3 too. I had it with me in my trip to Japan. I am very impressed by the ergonomics. The grip is one of the best, if not the best grip I have ever used on a camera.

MFT has still a lot to offer and depending on the use case and individuel needs is still unmatched. Enjoy MFT. The journey continues...

Thank you for welcoming me!

I like how it feels in the hands as well. I originally got it because of the pro capture L mode. The S5iix has now but it gets heavy fast.
I have yet to get more of the premium lenses for it but I'm happy with it and able to get nice all around shots and even small birds.
 
Yes, the S5ii can become very heavy during the day, depending on the lenses. L-Mount does still not have a small and light telezoom.

I had to limit myself to 3 lenses for MFT. In Japan I had the EM1.3 with the Oly 12-40/2.8 Pro II, the Leica 50-200 and the Oly 45/1.2 Pro with me. Both zooms are very good, although I missed sometimes the Oly 40-150/2.8 Pro for its rendering. But that one is too big and heavy to carry it around the whole day at 36 degree...

I had not yet the time to screen all my images from that trip. As soon as I have more time I will do that and then upload some images.
 
I mostly use the Oly 12-50/3.5-6.3 (because of the macro feature), the Oly 75-300/4.8-6.7, the Oly 45/1.8 & the lumix 9/1.7 or sometimes I just carry the Lumix 14-140/4-5.8 and forget to take the other lenses.

I would love to get the 50-200, I got to try it a couple of times off a friend, it's nice.
My coworker uses both Oly 12-40/2.8 and 40-150/2.8 with his G7 in his video work, I haven't had the guts to let try either one of those 2 lenses.
Have you used the Lumix 42.5/1.2 or do you just prefer the Oly 45/1.2 Pro?
How do you feel about the Oly 12-100 f4?

Can't wait to see your images.
