I picked up my OM4 with 90/2 the other day, inspired by Johnny J and his flower photos, and I found it a delightfully balanced combination.

How I spent my (first of the) Summer Vacation :-)

I used to think the OM-4 and the 90/2 macro is fairly heavy and all, and it still is, but I was hiking a lot with both cameras at the same time! I never thought I would do it like that, but it is sort of convenient to have a camera with wide angle and the other one with a medium telephoto. Just for good measure, I took a few macro shots just to make it worthwhile to carry a macro lens.

All in all, a very interesting experience. the Zuiko 50/2 and 90/2 are optically as excellent as anything. Unfortunately, the Zuiko wide angles cannot compare to the 35 'lux. Otherwise, I can relegate the Leica for low light indoor convention shots, and the OM for hiking. Oh well, life is not perfect....

The first 4 of the 6 rolls will be back tomorrow. We will see whether there are any good pics in the mix....
