Olympus OM-D E-M5
My next camera will be an Olympus OM-D EM-5. I'm going to get it with the bundled 12-50mm kit lens, which I could probably sell for a profit if I decide I don't want it. I will definitely be getting the 75mm f1.8 lens. After that, I'm not sure. I'm considering:
- Panasonic 7-14mm f4.0. I've never used such a wide angle lens before, so I'd want to rent and play with it first.
- 12mm f2.0 or 17mm f1.8 as an every day lens.

Accessories
Bags
My current thinking is to use a BlackRapid Metro camera strap. Seems very functional, light, and well-reviewed. In theory, the Snapr 35 would be perfect, but it was not well-reviewed.
I could then use an insert to carry this around in my backpack or other bags.
Another possibility is the LowePro S&F Utility Bag 100 AW, which I could probably use in the same way as a Snapr 35. Or, I could use the Metro strap along with a LowePro S&F Slim Lens Pouch 55 AW to hold an extra lens.
Finally, I'm considering a Tom Bihn Co-Pilot (possibly with an insert) as a dedicated bag:
