I would hazard a guess that the majority of iconic photos of the last 100 years were taken at something above f 2.8 and an iso of 100 or less.
choice of lens is down to finding a focal length that works for you... if you want to shoot sport or wildlife... then a long lens makes sense.... if you shoot interiors then a wide angle is a better bet
The body is pretty irrelevant.... yes a newer model will offer technically better benchmarks... most of which are indiscernible to most viewers of your pictures
if you can't take a good photograph with version 1 of a cameras then its doubtful if version 4 5 or 6 will change things much.
The choice between EP and OM is down to style of shooting.....arms length or up to the eye... and don't even mention the add on VF for the EP.... a design abomination:-) I am sure there are users who will defend that combination ...each to their own
as an aside.... i post my choice pics on flickr.... for a long time...even when I had better cameras my most 'interesting' photo was taken on a canon ixus/elph... bought in 2000 for 600 dollars... it was 2M pixels.... the photo is still my number 4 most interring picture... None of my most 'interesting' pics were taken with my more recent cameras
just my thoughts
