Unqualified to respond. . . but that's never stopped me before! [g]

I'll chime in with my experiences with E-Pn's and E-PLn's, that had more controls than the E-PM1, from an EVF is the only way to fly perspective. . .

The dials on the Pens were so sensitive and unresponsive at the same time that I ended up simply using them as having push-button control only. And once I was used to it it became 2nd nature. (Press North button on the rear dial to get exposure control activated, then use east/west buttons for shutter adjustment, north/south buttons for aperture adjustment).

I ended up getting rid of all things Pen once there were two proper dials introduced on the OM-D series, just because working with better controls more often made casual use of the Pens more frustrating muscle memory wise. YMMV ( Your tolerance for that sort of momentary frustration may be greater than mine [g].)
