The closes lens would be the Olympus 14-150mm f/4.0-5.6 II Lens for Micro Four Thirds. This is equal to 28-300mm on a 35mm standard.

I would choose something wider for landscaping, but for details and wildlife, this lens is great! As long as you have a lot of light, at least. Its real potencial shows when you use it at f/6.3 or smaller apertures. Hope this helps you.

It's a great lens but I have not used it for portraits. I have used it for travel photography and other family events.

Yes, the full frame sensor this camera has plus a good wide angle EF lens would be fine for landscape photography, you must use EF lenses with this camera only, as far as professional work goes as long as you use only the center point focus point you will get fine photographs.

If you want something good all around (but not really good at one single thing) then there's the Panasonic 12-35mm 2.8. It's wide enough to get nice landscapes, but the zoom will give you a more normal range too when you want it. If you want something smaller/ cheaper then the other lenses people have mentioned are good too. Don't get the Olympus 12mm F/2. I have it and the camera constantly mis-focuses.

I would say this lens is better for portraits as I use it on a 1.6 crop body. The F2.8 is good at low light too.

The focal length of this zoom is 18-55mm so it would mainly be good for portrait pictures and subjects that aren't too far away. If you'd like more zoom then we recommend purchasing a kit that also includes a 55-200mm lens.

The 18-140mm lens is a very good lens. I did trade mine for a 16-85mm lens that fit my work better. Also I have used the18-200mm lens which is also a very good lens. I don't think you could go wrong with any of these lens. The choice remains on what you want from your lens.

The kit lens which comes with this camera 18-55 would be far more satisfactory for landscapes. I have a sigma pro model 24-70mm and i still find myself using the 18-55 for landscapes/walk around lens. For prints/well composed shots less than 12 by 8 inches or internet you can't distinguish photo quality.

Sure, that's a nice lens for most portraiture. If you're shooting up close to a particular individual, you may want a slightly longer lens - say the 85mm. If you get super close with a 35mm you'll get a slightly more prominent nose. The 85 will compress the features and flatten the face a bit, giving a nicer shot. For groups this is perfect.

It's a very nice portrait lens but how you are going to use a 120mm lens for landscape It depends on you you!! The Lens is a perfect Macro lens and I love to have it with me whenever I use my EM5.

85mm focal length, regardless of manufacturer, hands down (or longer, up to 200mm) for individual portrait shots. 50mm is too short unless you need a wider focal length like for group shots.

in a micro four thirds is very good for portrait, i also like it for some landscapes. is not very fast focusing for sports or moving subjects.

Actually, for portrait I really much prefer something like 85mm to have a really nice bokeh and isolation of your subject. A 35mm is awesome to have put not primarily for portrait because you will endup always being so close to your subject that it becomes almost embarassing!

A 85mm F1.4 if is for full frame cameras in my personal opinion would be a great great lens to use for portraits. Expect to heve more head-shoulders type of portraits inside buildings due to 85mm and not being able to be far enough from the person you are taking the photo to capture more of the body but it should be more than enough.

What lenses do you own now and what's your budget? Are you asking for a longer telephoto lens or a single-lens-solution that covers a bigger range?
