I doesn't hold another lens or anything else except some batteries and 
spare flash cards but, for the E-M5 fitted with the 14-150 (general 
purpose walk-around lens) I've found the mid-size Ape Case holster bag 
ACPRO625 to be a most useful bag.  There are three of them 600, 625 and 
650 seen here:

The E-M5 would fit easily in the small 600 bag but I chose the medium 
size since I wanted to carry the E-M5 with 28-150 with lens hood 
deployed in usage position and also fitted with this grip from ebay

along with a tripod QR plate attached.which I like very much.  It's 
slightly snug with the pop-up flash unit fitted but it all does fit.

I originally bought this intending to use it as a waist bag since it has 
a broad belt loop but I've not found a suitable belt yet.  But I may 
just continue to use it as is.  I've found that wearing the strap 
cross-shoulder allows slinging the bag behind your back and keeps it out 
of the way.

That bag also has a built-in rain pouch that pulls out of a rear velcro 
closured pouch and fits over the bag.

I also bought the Moose recommended Lowe-Pro Photo Runner 100

since it has a tuck-away waist belt but I've not really put that one to 
use yet.  I've got to learn how to pack it properly.  I need something 
to hold the 12-50 and the (not yet acquired) 75-300 plus a T-32, etc.
