    What to do with my olympus gear?

    I'm thinking about jumping ship. I have taken some good pictures over the years, but I always get to lazy for large prints and have never learned photoshop enough to get more serious about the hobby.

    I read that 4/3 is dead or dying. Will I still be able to get any money for my lenses? I mean what good will they be?

    I have the following for my e-520

    • 50-200 Non SWD
    • 8mm fisheye
    • 14-54mm
    • 50mm f2 marco.
    • I also bought a flash for it that was a couple hundred bucks.


    I probably won't be as invested as some people here, but it was a good chunk of change for my use (non professional). I will miss many things if I switch to another brand, like the fisheye and macro lens, they were good values, as well as the easy to use menu and camera in general. I still think olympus makes some of the best glass, so i am very sad about the way things turned out. If the platform is dead, though good glass won't matter so much. I'd like to get something for my lenses before its too late, even if I can't get much for the camera. Then maybe invest that money I get into a new camera and start collecting lenses again?

    What is the best way to go about selling lenses?

    Advice?
