but if it's about ISO then you can't do much, the limitation of a body does matters a lot with that.

I think it's about that price? I wish m4/3 can come out with cheaper UWA lenses like how Canon did with their APSC (10-18mm, a fantastic lens costing below rm1k).

Yeah. My preferred shots are usually bright landscapes/architecture with an UWA. Followed by random unique things that I see while I'm traveling but most of the time E-pl3's sensor is too weak, so I have to jack up the ISO a lot.

Get samyang uwa lens for cheap. But it's fixed focal length and manual focus but great quality nonetheless.

I've checked previously I think the cheap ones are all fisheye lens. Or you're suggesting to use it with a fisheye fix?

i agree with you that 14-42 is abit narrow. but u can try to shoot in 3:2 or 16:9 aspect ratio to see if you like the result.
well said.  thumbup.gif
no choice, e-pl3 with kit lens i need to jack up till iso-3200 while shooting in dark. (some more i only use low noise filter  sweat.gif )

no matter u choose to upgrade body or lens first, you will not get it wrong either. if you have a good deal, just take it.  icon_rolleyes.gif

I tried it, it's still not wide enough for my taste.

I enjoy shooting with 714 though. IMHO the distortion actually enhance some dramatic effect to sky and cloud laugh.gif

Those are some really nice photos! Exactly the kinda feel that I wanted to capture. Which I mostly can't with 14-42mm. I've seen some pics with oly 9mm F8 cap lens. What do you guys think?

I have 9mm f8 bcl i think it is good for its price and good alternate for wide angle lens, of course thats it if you dont mind the fish eye distortion

The reason why I'm interested in this 9mm FE is that the distortion isn't as extreme as others, and also of course, the price! drool.gif Now, I wonder where I could get it and how much in retail shops...
