OM-5 test by Todd Vorenkamp: A Great Travel Companion, Even if You Aren’t Traveling
Todd Vorenkamp from Explora tested the OM-5 and concluded:
I will share that the one OM-5 lens I would not leave home without is the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 25mm f/1.8 lens. Paired with the zooms, this will be your go-to option for when you want to just throw the camera, sans camera bag, over your shoulder and head out for some awesome photographic adventures. Extremely portable, the OM-5 and this lens together weigh just over a single pound! And, at f/1.8, this lens will be your low-light machine!

New Sigma patent makes you assume the LEICA 42.5mm f/1.2 was maybe designed by them?

Asobinet spotted a newly published Sigma 42.5mm f/1.2 MFT lens patent. This really looks like the current Leica 42,5mm lens design. So maybe Panasonic licensed the design from Sigma?
