Good comparison. My Nikon system is similar. Thus, is does come down to convenience vs having all the bells and whistles. And from my research and what folks have responded to in regards to my questions, it is becoming clear a 4/3 system may have the bells and whistles and capability I need to continue to take the images I want without any sacrifice in quality. That is what I believe DLSR users will probably be seriously considering before making a plunge into a new system.

Why does everyone always assume that it is "either/or"?

Just keep two (or three or four!) systems and choose the appropriate one for the job at hand.

There are times when I need my full frame, 2 body, full set of f2.8 glass Nikon D3s kit. And times when the GH3 is just fine. There would also be times when a Leica M would be good and times when a Medium Format would be good. Just not enough times for me to buy the last two (and I can't see well enough to focus the M lenses any more).

The two systems offer different strengths and weaknesses with some overlap. The obvious thing to do is maintain both systems.
