Olympus OM E-M5 couple with LEICA DG SUMMILUX 25mm F1.4 ASPH, will give 50mm focal length of FF?

How much roughly will the body+lens cost?


Added on July 18, 2012, 10:03 pmAny idea why Olympus 45mm and Panasonic 20mm is most popular lens?
*
Body only should be ard RM3.1k... not sure about PL 25 f1.4, but Oly 45 f1.8 should be ard RM1k....
I'll be getting the body + Oly 45 this weekend... while saving for the Pan 12-35 f2.8 to reach our shore....

Hopefully I won't regret the decision to jump ship to m4/3 after I sold my NEX7 set-up early this week biggrin.gif

that's d reason why i am not getting  tongue.gif rather use my trustworthy oly 14-54 f2.8-3.5
*
With prices in US now getting lower to below US$1k after the initial launch, I hoped that this lens will be below RM4k when it is available here.
I decided not to get the kit 12-50 coz waiting impatiently for this lens....
If the Home Minister finds out that the 12-35 cost the same as body + Oly 45 1.8, kena tido luar wooo! tongue.gif

Can anyone share some lights where can i source for a wide angle lens in local store & the average price? I'm looking for 7-14mm F4 or 9-18mm Olympus but seems like most of the store does not carry ready stock....

I was thinking to order from oversea seller but worry about the postage might harm the lens... sad.gif

Try Digitalmall PJ? Lowyat? Times Sq?
or maybe shashinki.com or ylcamera.com.my?

Most of the Semi-Pro Camera Shops carries the Panny 7-14mm. But little of them carries the Oly 9-18mm due to the demands. I can help you source for either one. But I'd highly recommend you to go for the Panny 7-14mm instead. 2mm is a huge different for Ultra-Wide Focal Length. For price wise, the Panny 7-14mm is way higher compared......
Bro, any idea when is the local launch of Pana 12-35 f2.8 and the expected price?
Thanks

whao why such decision to sell ur NEX replace with m43?
Not happy with NEX7 hi-ISO, not happy with the purple fringing on wide angle legacy, not enough native E-mount lens that fully utilized N7 sensor.

Price wise, I'm seeing around RM3,600 - RM3,900.
.....
Thanks bro... considering US already start selling at US$1.3k, RM3.6-3.9k is expected.

You can only see M4/3 full potential when using good lenses. Stop wasting money chasing after body.

Just got 7-14 and 12-35. The picture quality really darn good.

Panny 12-35 f2.8 launched already in MY?
How much and where you got it from, if you don't mind.
Thanks

45 and 75 are portrait lens, definitely not wide enough..
I'm still hunting for a bargain 2nd-hand 14 f2.5 to go with the Oly 45 while waiting for Panny MY to launch 12-35 f2.8 tongue.gif

Just bought the Pan 12-35 f2.8 this afternoon.
Seems like the 1st batch of this lens was sold out in SG within 2-3 days of it's launch.

Trust me later you forget about the pancake 20mm liau.
I only have the Pancake 14mm and Oly 45 1.8
The pancake will be the backup lens if I want to travel light.
With the 12-35, the OM-D is front heavy

Maybe time to buy Gariz or Zelenpool half-case tongue.gif

Have the PL 25mm now.

If i wanna get a pancake prime.

You guys think worth to get the 20mm f1.7?
Or go 14mm f2.5?
*
Agree with bro S4a...
Just go for 14mm, as 20 and 25 angle of view is not much different.
14mm will give you nice wide angle perspective, albeit at slower f speed.
Furthermore 14mm is so much cheaper and faster focusing in low light

Is it that important for filters on 7-14? Heard they are going to upgrade it, 20mm f1.7 focusing is not that fast on omd?
Still thinking what's my first lens that goes with the omd smile.gif

Olympus 75mm so expensive too, 3K?

The price at Indonesia is crazy, battery grip for 3.6juta almost RM1300
*
Go for Panny 12-35 f2.8 rclxms.gif
It's a very versatile lens, can cover wide angle for landscape, normal angle for street shoot and can still be used for portrait.
Add fast aperture prime like 20 1.7 or 25 1.4 for night shoot when the need arises
