Ok that was just an observation and a bit of fun. If this is all correct Olympus have with one with one "back ally statement " made obsolete every camera body they have done so far 4/3 and m4/3.

I don't think this will be the case for everyone. Some people, for various valid and invalid reasons, simply won't use an EVF. Period.

Something must be in the pipeline if this was an official slip. Would you buy a OMD-EM5 now knowing that Olympus has the tech (Possible on chip PADF) to do it in the short term and is building it already. I can tell you now I as sure as hell will not buy a m4/3 camera now (even if I was inclined to ) not until Olympus make an official statement.

Depends on what you are looking for. One thing that is for certain though, the EM5 is here. Now. The 'other' camera is not. Might never be.

I don't like swapping cameras all the time, and I certainly don't do it unless there is an advantage to be gained, but I can tell you one thing, using the latest technology often gives you additional freedoms in both the capturing of the image and what you can do with it later. Life is short. One has to strike a balance and sometimes, its just not worth waiting around for 'what if's. That might even mean buying an EM5 now, and then re-evaluating the situation if and when something else comes along.
