Hi Moose,

I stand corrected on the stops however 7-14 is 14mm - 28mm equiv and fuji 10-24 is 15mm -35mm is that not similar? I loved the 7-14 for 4/3 but only accepted the panasonic 7-14 for m4/3 not sure why as it was a good lens but for some reason I can't place, it didn't gel for me - its the same with the fuji 60mm macro. as for lens complexity design m4/3 gains on telephoto but loses a bit at the wide end.

I bought a Tough TG-4 because of the focus stacking which my wife uses for her eye photography and after seeing your results the M5 is very tempting - but I love the way the fujis work in my hand.

IanW - why no enabling ;-)

I think I mentioned before that there is a special edition titanium om-5 mk2 in the window of my local camera shop that keeps catching my eye and I do like like the idea of the smaller PLeica even if I lose a stop at the far end it's worth it for the extra reach

Actually, the PLeica is only 1/3 stop slower at the long end - and over 1/3 faster at the short end. Toss-up on speed, overall. At 600 mm eq, 400 on APS-C and 300 on Âľ4/3, they are the same speed.

- maybe I should think about trading the Fuji 100-400 and TC 1.4 and my canyon 5d mk2 in for that setup and I would gain focus stacking or is it bracketing

It's "Bracketing" where combining them happens in post, on the E-M5 II, with very flexible range of settings and works with any AF lens. "Stacking", which happens in-camera, is E-M1s only, but also close to useless, as it only takes 8 slices and only works with 3-4 lenses. The Columbine images I just posted are Bracketed.

On a fuji note I am very pleased with the sharpness from the 10-24 it seems to match (or better) the 4/3 olympus 7-14

Not sure what that means, as the zoom ranges don't even overlap. 7-14 is harder to design than 10-24.
