May be great for a Pro wildlife shooter...
I'd like to sell the parts and end up with a free 7-14, but prolly still too much.
Can't find on other sites. Anyone help?
as such, MFT system will require fast lens to help resolve this issue. ideally you would need a comparable lens thats 2 stop faster. and here is the problem: good fast lens are expensive. this applies to all cameras system, it is just particularly more important for MFT.
for example. a regular olympus 40-150 F4.0-5.6 lens is 99 dollar all day everyday, an olympus 40-150 F2.8 (about 1 to 2 stop faster depend on focal length) is 1500 dollar. this is because aperture is a function of the focal length and diameter of the iris. larger aperture (faster lens) require much larger openings, meaning much more glass, and much better glass.
the same goes for 300 mm telephoto. you can easily get a Olympus 75-300 F4.8-6.7 for under 400 dollars, but the moment you want that large aperture, you will be paying 3k for that.
you are still getting a bargain compared to full frame. a 600 mm F4 cannon EF lens be 4 times as large, wieght 4 time more and cost 4 times as much (priced at 13k). of course it also gathered 4 times more light on the FF body but you got the idea here.
that said, i think the entire pro series lens aren't making too much sense for MFT (i have the entire collection of olympus MFT premium prime lens). MFT system itself is a compromise. it is small enough, cheap enough, and light enough for everyone to pick up and have fun. the pro lens cost arm and leg, they are as large, and weight as much as their full frame counter parts and you still won't be able to overcome the inherent flaw of a smaller sensor. if i have to pick up a lens that is over 500g in weight, i might as well just use my cannon full frame to get the better picture.
the same goes for E-M1X. it is as large as many full frame camera and cost about the same, but not as capable. so i am not sure why olympus even put up something like it. the fact is very few people are actually buying E-M1x when you can get sony A7 iii / iv or nikon Z7 or cannon EOS R for about the same price

Its the fact don't fight it. Full frame is heavier but if you care about quality, can't go wrong with 45.7mp
