Thinking of getting the EP3 but unsure if I should go for just the single lens or twin lens.
I'm a newbie and was thinking by having a twin lens i get to learn more, am I on the right course? Or should I just opt for the single lens until I find its limitation and buy other lenses.

I believe I'm more of a traveler hence my interest lies towards scenery, street and food.

Opinions?

my opinion is go single kits lens, 14-42mm... Play around and familiar the system... Later u may want some awesome prime lens...

I started with kits then now I own another 45mm prime super nice bokeh lens...

One reason I'm having a hard time is because the additional lens will cost me just SGD219.

hmmm...darkages...
pls do tell ur which r the 2 lenses that u r buying?

i hv seen the sweetest deal for twin len for olympus 14-42 with 17 f2.8 or more recently panasonic 14 pancake with 14-42 also...

if 1 of ur lense is a pancake, then go for it.
otherwise, the kit 14-42 is good enough

learn how to shoot 1st.
if u wan to shoot for general purpose, the 14-150 is really a much better choice.
cos u won't waste time changing lense and miss the moment.....

for the time being, jus get the 14-42.

M.ZUIKO DIGITAL 14-42mm f3.5-5.6 II R lens and the M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 40-150mm f4.0-5.6R lens.

Took the plunge. Got myself an EP3.

The standard sd card seem very slow in saving shoots, is this normal? Or do I have to invest in a faster sd card.

The silver for EM5 looks matt compared to the metalic silver for EP3, am I right?

Haven't seen the real EM5 yet.
