EUCLID11 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Hi, go to Harrisons and check out the camera. If you like it, ask about lenses and they will give you all the advice you need. This Olympus will take other lenses, Lumix, Sanyang and such. An experienced photographer can give you loads of advice and thats where I go for kit and advice. They have never sold me anything that was unsuitable. Good luck and happy snapping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue9iron Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Hi I use an Olympus 4/3rds system and love it, you can use mainly their own lenses or Panasonic.As Euclid said go in Harrison's their advice is good and if its second hand it comes with 12mths warranty.
