A new review should be up tomorrow.
Here's some feedback on the stuff that I took into the outback:
- Olympus E-M5 II: I guess I will not warm up with it anymore. The quality of the viewfinder didn't impress me and it just takes too long till it's ready for shooting from startup. The electronic shutter was nice but then I had this on the GH-3 already.
- Olympus 12-40/2.8: I downright hate the front cap which had a strong tendency to detach in my bag already. Otherwise fine.
- Olympus 7-14/2.8: Great
- Panasonic 40-150: Some may be surprised that I took this one but the IQ is really nice. However, there's a compatibility issue with the camera! It seems as if the OIS needs to be constantly powered even when disabled. However, this just holds for half a minute on the E-M5 II. Thereafter the lens doesn't focus correctly anymore!
And ... oh yes, I loved our Jeep Grand Cherokee (rental car). ;-)
