B+W 62mm 110M ND 3.0 Filter (10 Stop) to try out long exposures during day time. Should fit nicely on my 12-40 PRO with a CPL. Wish B&H shipped as fast as Amazon, but I'd much rather spend my dollars there even if I have to wait another week.
You might consider keeping the Gossen as a backup. The Gossens and Sekonics continue to be accurate and dependable meters. I have the Sekonic 478 and the original Sekonic Studiomaster (needle indicator) purchased in 1970 on my way back from Vietnam (which meter still works).I have ordered one of these.

got a secondhand Sekonik en-route. It has an adjustable invercone, swivel head and it lights up like a Christmas tree when the light drops below 6EV. Provided it checks out okay, I'll sell the Gossen on![]()
I have had three SD cards fail----all were genuine SanDisk cards- 2 16gb Extremes and one 128 gb Extreme card. Plastic broke around the contacts. And in anticipation of the other question, I keep them in a hard plastic case where they are securely held.For what it’s worth, I’ve had a few micro-SD cards fail, but never an SD card.
Don’t forget the relatively short minimum focus distance. It’s one heck of a lens.A M.Zuiko 40-150 f2.8 PRO
After selling all my Canon gear, including my Canon 70-200 L I wanted a replacement for this.
I've been considering a switch to a 12-100 f4 but decided to search for a 40-150 f2.8
Found one last friday on ebay, got in contact with the seller, won the auction. I paid €716 euro and it is in absolute pristine condition, not a single mark to be seen anywhere....
What a beast, built like a tank, sharp, clever touches like the sliding lens hood, focus clutch system, but also a serious weight...
I must admit I had a similar reaction when I upgraded from an E-M10 to an E-M5 II. I really liked the E-M10, including how it felt in my hand. And then the E-M5 II topped it. And yes, that wonderful shutter!But the E-M5.ii just feels great. It feels right.
You can get help...Good grief...what’s wrong with me?!
I had one of them S2Pro, then an S3 Pro, then an s5 Pro. Several months ago, one of my wife's former customers from her lab emailed her and told her he had a camera to give away for the cost of postage and she said to send it to her. It came and we were totally happy to see it was a Fuji S3 Pro in great condition. I have been having a long-lost friendship with it again and its beautiful colors.Good grief...what’s wrong with me?! I haven’t even had an outing with my E-500 yet. But this was such a good price...and for when my 5mp D1X doesn’t cut it, I’ll need the 6.1mp Fuji!
Lucky you. This was a good deal, but still cost more than the price of postage!I had one of them S2Pro, then an S3 Pro, then an s5 Pro.

Welcome to the forum.Left m43 and photography over 6 years ago, not because I had anything against m43 (quite the opposite actually) but life kind of got in the way. Recently decided to pick up a used E-PL2 for under $30 online. Currently (and excitedly) watching the tracking number update slowly.
Have been shopping for used lenses as well - there's so much more used inventory on the market from people offloading there m43 kit in search of greener pastures. Such a different arena from back when I first bought my original E-M5. It felt like I was the only one in my town who had an m43 camera.
