Have any list members used both Olympus and Panasonic micro-4/3rds bodies? 
If so, would you mind comparing the two systems with regard to IQ? Have you 
observed any significant operational differences between the two systems? I 
recall reading somewhere- DP Review perhaps - that the Pen had stronger AA 
filters and am curious to know if that has an effect on the end result.

I very much like the built in IS of the Olympus Pen E bodies but 
operationally prefer the Panasonic G series.  An NX 10 with an articulated 
display and body IS would be ideal but such a beast does not exist yet.

Lastly, given the software correction built ino digital cameras how well do 
Panasonic lenses (e.g. the 20/1.7 pancake) work on Olympus bodies and 
vice-versa?

Comments are welcomed.
