just out of curiosity have you had a play with the oly omd em5 ?

AF better, but not interested in the sensor ... don't like the OM form factor, too much 1970s ... but camera is fine for what it is ... did some pixel peeping on the OM files vs Nikon vs X-E1

I thought: Why bother?? Ok, high ISO is not everything, but when comparing ...

Another aspect, often overlooked, is that the DOF is different so bokeh for portraits are rendered differently depending on sensor size and lens. The Oly has a 1:2 vs FF sensor the X-E1 a 1.5 crop, which makes a 14mm on the Fuji a 21mm and would make it 28mm on the Oly. Now that is substantial, if bokeh is part of your game!
