if only the EM-1 is priced at US$999, would be really sweet.. keep the price for lenses as they are. bodies will be outdated much sooner than lenses, use this to attract dslr users over to a smaller system. I for one would jump ship, well partially

I think you need to consider the target market...

That 40-150/2.8 is large. But its 80-300/2.8 (35mm eq). Compare that to anything on APS and FF and its still "light".
I don't think there's a 70 or 80-300 f2.8 lens...there's a Sigma 120-300mm f2.8 though, it's almost 3kg and 29cm length, but ye, Olympus will be alot lighter
That's fast! I'm still waiting for the review sets from Olympus to have a handson session for clubsnap members
woah, missed this. the pro 40-150 looks like a water flask & its almost double the 35-100 in length!
Looking forward to my 12-40 though I'm sure I'm not getting the EM-1.
12-35 vs 12-40 , which shall prevail?hope the local release comes soon!
I think it is equivalent to a 80-300/5.6 lens...
Imagine you use the sensor in 4/3rds and scale it up to FF, your ISO sensitivity will be roughly better by 2 stops because of the 4x increase in sensor area.
I like the look too, the last one is too plastiky...I used to have the OM1 & 2; compact but feels solid in my hand.
So, the 40-150mm will be a reasonable size to go with the E-M1 and GH3 and not tiny like the 35-100mm from Panasonic, made more for the GX1 and GX7. Hopefully, the image quality will be double the 35-100mm also.

So..... I got my E-M1 (body only) yesterday and has been playing with it the whole morning. I only have one word 'AWESOME'!
It definitely is a more than worthy replacement for my trusted E-5 and the new sensor really really brings out the best in the original 4/3 lenses! No regrets in splurging at all.... anyone wants to buy an E-5?
