I finally managed to get one of the hottest cameras on the market right now, the Olympus OM-D E-M5 with a kit lens. The only reason I purchased the lens as well was for protection against inclement weather. No point having a camera that's splash proof and not having a lens to go with it. It's actualy an OK lens, nothing really great about it but it does the job. One of the good things about it is the macro mode. Put it in macro mode by pressing the macro button on the side of the lens and slide the focusing ring forwards. The lens is then fixed at 43mm. Very good for close-up photography.

I wanted to see how this combination does for my favourite photography, photographing clouds. I had a good change one eavening when the light was almost gone but some huge clouds has gathered to the south east. They were being illuminated by the setting sun giving them a fascinating look. The shapes were great and the texture pretty nice.
