Bags and cases are pretty subjective as they tend to be selected to meet specific photographer needs. I have 2 OMD bodies that I take whenever I go out to shoot along with 5 lenses of varying focal lengths, a Metz dedicated flash with external battery pack, cords and assorted small accessories. The bodies both have the grips and battery packs. I chose to go with a Lowepro backpack because of its quality construction , resistance to weather and ability to reconfigure the interior based upon what body/lens I want to have ready to grab from the bag. These bags can get a bit pricey but I figured that with $5K worth of equipment to carry around, it was worth it to buy some quality protection to port the gear. BTW: The Lowepro website has some great info on it to determine what will suit your needs (and I have no personal, professional or financial interest in Lowepro, I just think they produce a quality product).

I use my Sigma 19mm exclusively on an EM5 and am quite pleased with this combo. Quick focus, sharp images and looks and feels great on OMD too.....also have the Sigma 60mm lens and it is superb!

I can't say for certain as I haven't handled an E-PM2, but most likely yes. The lens is too big to use on the E-M5 without the additional grip on it in my opinion. Banana for scale: http://i.imgur.com/BdiK7WL.jpg

Good question. I still have my EM10 and added an E-M1. Pretty tempting on the EM5 for that price. Wish I could be of more help.

Yes, this is the best bag by far for my EM-1 and lots of lenses! I have tried quite a few and this is the one I use.

Hi,I love the case. My Canon SX50 HS with shoulder strap fits in the main compartment along with my battery charger and USB connector cable. I carry a an numbe of other accessories in the side poches like USB drives, a memory card converter and a quick link for my monopod and tripod. Everything is well padded and protected. I'm very happy with the case.

I doubt it; I've never seen one. The few leather cases I've seen for the E-M5 require it to be completely grip-less. (Also, I wouldn't want a case that goes over the grip: it would make the grip too bulky and ruin the ergonomics.) Best to buy a standard bag, like a Crumpler.

Hi. First sorry for my poor english. The case is perfect for use with all types of lenses and zoom. Previously buying my new lens, use the case with a 75 300, the fit is perfect. The case has an accessory that allows you to adjust in compliance to the long lens. This helps to prevent the camera move inside the case if the lens is short. What it is important to know is that the fit is for the camera body and one lens. Good luck

I have an E-PL3 so you will have to check if it is the same size as your with the 14-42 lens. The camera, with lens attached as well as the flash all fit, but there isn't room for anything ealse.

Have above camera .. also Marine case for same... Fits perfectly and easily used.. takes great underwater shots.. bit of a pain to get replacement seals and gel packs which I later got via Panasonic.. Don't open at beach to see your shots... wait till you get home and clean in water to avoid sand/dirt getting in case... AWESOME PRODUCT... ALSO make sure you use underwater setting in camera as your shots will be better...

Hello, do you still have Nikon J3's in stock with the 2 lens package and if so what colors? Also can you send me a link to the case you would recommend for this camera and both lens?

It depends how you want it to rest in case. If you wanna the body of the camera down and the lense to point up, it'll probably be a tight fit. The inside has Velcro dividers that can be adjusted so if you'd like to put it in the long way with the lense pointing left you or right you should be fine. I have my Lumix GH4 with a 14-40 lense and I can fit it in just fine with room for chargers and battery packs. Overall I love the bag. Lots of pockets on the side and in front to store other things. I even keep my Tascam in a case in the inside slots with my camera itself. Totally worth the money.

If you buy the kit for $1,149.00, the lens will be included. "What's in the box" might be because it's a description of the body only and up. Maybe. Anyway, the lens will be there if you buy the $1,149.00 kit. It is a handy lens that matches the E-M5 nicely. Nothing beats primes, but the 12-50mm is very handy for the less serious daily walk-around use. I am very happy with mine, and am very pleased with the 12-50mm over the 14-42mm option. I've had both. Good luck!

EM-5 comes 3 different ways... Body only, with 14-42mm. or with 12-50mm weather-proof lens

I purchased the Tamrac MX5378 case for my EFS 55-250mm lens. The lens with inverted hood fits perfectly.

I just purchased this and have the 5D Mark lll with the battery grip. I agree its tight. I removed the added pad on the inside and put the camera in, leaving it for a few days. Now it fits really nice, I would say snug. No issues with the zipper or closing. It really is a personal preference.

I'm wondering the same thing! I guess I'll find out once i get the case but if you or anyone knows...I thought the lens adaper was supposed to be left on so if the case doesn't work with it that will seem to make it worthless...I just can't see taking it off and on eevery time you want to put the camera back in the case!
