A question for everyone....what are the options for macro lenses on the Pen series housings. There seems to be conflicting data out there about what lens works with which camera/port etc.
I currently have an EPL2 with PT-EP03 housing, and my fiancée has an EPL3 with PT-EP05L housing. We have seen that the new olympus 60mm macro is supposed to work with the EPL5, but have also heard that its too long for the EPL3. Similarly the 45mm macro didnt work well with the EPL2 as it was too far from the port to be a great fit, but I have heard of people using it with the EPL3.
Looking at the specs PT-EP03 (180x135.5x166.5), PT-EP05 (175x149x156) and PT-EP10 (175x154x168) it kinda makes sense that the 60mm macro (56x82mm) would work with the EPL2 and 5 and the 45mm (63x62.5) would be a fit for the EPL3, but I would appreciate some advice from someone who has actually got the lenses/housings to test
Cheers
