Asked by: Horacio
The OM SYSTEM PEN Mirrorless Camera (Black) uses micro 4/3rd lenses, and most other brands, including Panasonic, should work very well. Until the camera is released and tested, it will only use the camera's built-in 5-axis in-body image stabilization when using third-party lenses.
