So Oly has made two micro-4/3rds lens announcements. Both of them, in my opinion, are big yawns!
A 40-150mm micro-4/3rds version at approximately $400+ US dollars (€329 in the announcement). You can buy the normal 4/3rds 401-50mm add the Olympus micro-4/3rds adapter and still have enoough money left over to pick up something like the 35mm Macro lens. Although it will probably be affordable when they package it with Pen cameras along with the micro-14-42mm lenses as a kit.
A 75-300mm which is even slower than the 70-300mm yet priced about the same as the 50-200mm lens at approximately $1100 US (€899). Sure it will be a lot smaller than either of those two 4/3rds lenses, but come on, over a $1000 ???
Oh and the announcement of the E-P2 being available in black. Whatever.
