November 5, 2009 |Wow, that 35-100 looks mighty interesting. I almost wish that I won’t have the money at that time, since otherwise I might go out and buy it right away.

November 5, 2009 |Still no fast, (relatively) cheap primes….. Cmon, man!

November 5, 2009 |Very nice roadmap.
At least we know that Olympus will mimic the 4/3′s standard zoom lenses and High grade primes.
Except the upgrade of the sigma’s designed 18-180 to 14-150
And the addition of a 12mm prime.

November 5, 2009 |I have been dying for a 14mm prime lens! I’m starting to feel as if buying into M4/3 was the wrong choice.
Mato
November 5, 2009 |Still nothing like 20mm 1.8 for 4/3. I think I’ll sell 4/3 stuff and move to Cannon/Nikon.
Eric
November 5, 2009 |Yay, I love endless DOF in all of my photos. Who needs f/1.8 or faster m4/3′s lenses? Why would anyone want to separate the subject from the background?
Seriously Olympus? Not one f/1.4 lens in your entire lens line up…and thats counting regular 4/3′s too. That is absolutely pathetic. The smaller size of the 4/3′s sensor already makes shallow DOF more of a challenge, and Olympus seeming refusal to make fast glass for the system just makes matters worse.

November 5, 2009 |I am pissed… I wish Olympus would just admit that they are not developing any more standard four thirds lenses. I’ve been hopeful that somehow they would spend a portion of their R&D to design 1 or 2 fast prime lenses.

November 6, 2009 |This lens road-map makes me sad. There are many people who are waiting for Zuiko single focal lenses like 25mm or 20mm at least f2.0 or better (and I even don’t mention 12mm or 14mm primes). What is that even classic E-System doesn’t have a fast normal lens? Even mFT which is directly predicated for primes doesn’t have fast one. Not only for DOF but especially for available light and candid photography. Olympus stop making slow zooms and make fast primes. This is your weakest point in E-System.

November 6, 2009 |So far all fast standard primes for the FT system are made by other manufacturers such as Sigma, Panasonic/Leica. These primes are heavier than comparable standards primes for the FF (35mm) thus thwarting the advantages in weight by the FT system and leaving you with a smaller sensor. Why are fast primes for the FT system so heavy? Will there ever be light weight ones?
If not, being a fast prime lovers, going FF frame might be our best bet while gaining lovely bright OVF’s and high sensitive high resolution sensors.
Maybe it is time that FT is bailed and the digital OM reborn?!
