Never looked at the PEN camera's Got the original Q for fun for a nice price which I couldn't resist and since then I'm hooked on the Q. The raw files are perfect, and I'm a real pixel peeper. The little lenses are real gems. My 08 wide zoom on a Q-S1 is as good as my DA12-24 or DA*16-50 on a K5!!!

I'm pretty sure they killed the Q because there was no where to go with it. The sensor was already pushing resolution limits, the form factor was already too small for a decent powered battery to improve performance, as well as being less that optimal for heat management. Pretty much any imp

The 08 is a real gem. LR has a profile for it. allmost a macro wide angle The 06 tele zoom and 01 are also excellent. I had to get three copies of the 02 standard zoom to get a good one. If you put a raynox 150 or 250 in front of the 06 tele you get an excellent tele macro. and if you get a Metx

I thought the same thing but was not able to get stacked images that were as good as APS-C work, but I was just getting started with focus stacking when I experimented with it and gave up on the Q quickly. The issues I ran into were that that Q's sensor, even at ISO, if fairly noisy and focus

Mark, Very happy to read your considerations about macro. I had thoughts along similar lines, but actually for extreme macro studio work. Controlling vibration at 4X and beyond can be a pain. A setup that requires less magnification to fill the frame could be a good thing if the image quality is
