Assuming that the AF speed obviates the need for zone focusing M43  
lenses, and except for the in-lens IS, this looks a bit more promising  
than the E-P1.  But why are these cameras so big?  The height and  
depth of the body look like they're almost the same as an M8, and this  
is before you put an EVF on it.
