Why not look at Panasonic for macro? The 45 F/2.8 Leica is a great little lens ... <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.

Only because there was always hope Olympus would try to bring us a tinified glorious mft 50mm f/2 but now that they announced the 60mm macro, it's a bit unclear. Anyways, I'm not very much into macro so far so I can sit and wait.
some other notes :
-find out what's the point of a bulb feature with a camera without remote. Try the live bulb. Compare if any impact on noise.
-IS is rock solid at 200mm with 45-200mm.
-Figure out the "keep warm colors" Auto WB setting wrt previous generation cameras.
-EXTREMELY cool live view highlight and shadow flashing (blue & red).
-the direct tone curve control seem to work in RAW too. Have to check that.
-FAST, FAST, FAST kit lens.
I had a GH2 in hands & this. This is smarter, better, cuter. This thing *is* the Micro Four Thirds concept. Subjective, of course.
greetings,
S.
