    advice needed re shooting macro video with Pen camera
    Hi all,</SPAN></SPAN>

    I am a long time Olympus user. Currently I use an e-620 with an e-500 in reserve, along with a selection of OM cameras and lenses. </SPAN></SPAN>

    I want to start getting into macro and close-up video, but unfortunately neither of my DSLRs shoots video. I don’t need a new DSLR and can’t afford an E5 or OM-D right now. I was thinking about picking up one of the Olympus Pen cameras and adapters for my OM and digital lenses specifically for video. I figure I can get a good used Pen for about $200.</SPAN></SPAN>

    Does anyone have any experience to share re: shooting macro video with a Pen using 4/3 and/or OM lenses? </SPAN></SPAN>

    Is there any of the Pen models to specifically look for, or avoid?</SPAN></SPAN>

    Thanks for any suggestions.</SPAN></SPAN>
