For legacy glass? The fourth sample

of a Minolta MD 75-150/4 which I'm going to pick up in an hour. Natively speaking I'm holding my breath for the Panny 35-100mm to replace the Panny 45-175mm which I don't really like because of its OIS issues. This time I will wait for reviews and other users' experiences before I'll buy it.

I am quite happy with my current set up, with exception of the 40-150 which is OK but not great in my opinion. Looking forward to the upcoming 35-100, if that one delivers a substantial better IQ that will be my next purchase. Rarely use anything above 100mm anyway, so the reach and constant 2.8 will suit me just fine.

7-14mm is my next purchase. poison by the awesome images~

Hopefully the 75mm 1.8, but since a baby is on its way I am going to have to wait for a while for some cash :D

Ideally the rumored M43 version of the Oly 12-60mm. The other alternative would be either the 7-14mm or a UWA prime if one comes along sooner than later.

I just had the local camera store order a pany 12-35/2.8 for me... but after that gets here, probably the 35-100 or 75/1.8. Later down the line it will be the 7-14... Bah, I need to sell some stuff.

I like...I don't notice any of the issues that people were describing (aside from my own issues of being a crap photographer).

Olympus m.ZD 12-50/3.5-6.3 is on its way. Sometimes you need a jack of all trades, even if it's a master of none... Expecting I'll be exploring the wonders of Lightroom sharpening in a great deal of detail soon.

With that said, what's your next lens and why?

The Olympus 45mm f/1.8 will be an excellent choice for portraiture.

I also like using it for candid street photography, but the street aficionados react violently to any suggestion of a focal length greater than 25mm. I say to that: 45mm is fine by me.
