So, where is the OM-D system gear like the bellows, more macro lenses, focusing
stage, etc. etc.?
I suppose the marketplace, perhaps even gestalt, of photography is different now. But I also imagine that many others
are like me, and already have much of that gear. I bought the second rail (with attached bellows spares) not because I
didn't have one, but to make my photographic life more convenient. I can just grab the one with bellow or the one with
focusing stage and get on with it. :-)
The old accessories mostly work well with an adapter on 4/3 and µ4/3 cameras. Focusing rail and stage and macrophoto
stand work well with them. The biggest problem for the bellows is effective FLs. The 'normal' bellows lenses are long.
I like the long FL of the 60/2.8 macro, for working distance. Perhaps Oly hasn't made a shorter one because the market
is small and Panny has 30/2.8 and 45/2.8.
