I'm looking forward to trying some of the fast primes though.

The EP3 is certainly a nice looking camera, I think better than the EPL5. The kit lens is good for day time but you need a fast lens for night shots. 12mm f2 is good for landscape for instance.

This is my computer wall paper taken with EP3 and 12mm f2 handheld. ISO 400 is good to use without much noise.
