I'm pretty sure Dan that the 14-150mm isn't in the olympus pro range

But since getting home and really starting to understand the camera and the lenses that are available I am wishing I bought a pro lense straight up. Again Im not sure an average hack like myself can do any of the lenses justice but I am after nice crisp sharp images and in a lot of cases in lower light situations.
Im sure the lense we got will be good but I think the pro would have been better.

Oh yes it is - according to Google, anyway. Over $1,200 at Amazon.
