My concern with the Fuji is basically lack of weather sealing. Its an expensive camera, and I want to take it to some far out places. Travel photography is my main interest, as is landscape.

I also find the AF a bit slow on the Fuji but I also think that putting in body IS into a mirrorless offering is a very good idea - being able to use stabilised primes is surely a good idea.

However, I like its ergonomics, but the latest OMD deal is free with the battery grip here in the UK and that has made me think twice!

I also use the GH2 for video and in an ideal world I'd only be invested in one system. However, I have been blown away by the detail coming from my Fuji. Like the shot sbelow

I wouldn`t be too concerned over weather sealing, sure the OMD and GH3 have this, but quite often your going to want to use a lens that is not.

Most if not all camera`s can handle a light plastering of rain.

The OMD deals have sure been good, getting the OMD + 12-50mm kit lens and picking up the free grip, the whole lot will have weather sealing, in all a superb deal.

For travel and street photography the OMD would be ideal, the live bulb feature being great for landscape, and the touch screen is good for street photography shooting from the hip.

Here`s a few from the OMD + 12-50mm.
