that's w good comparison but what i got from it was you would still prefer the olympus. i suspect switching to the panasonic may have you second guessing your decision in the near future. i shot my last wedding with the 12-40 pro on the em1 and the 45mm zuiko on the em5. the 45 is not as snappy as the 12-40 in low light but the 12-40 is still every bit as fast as many, if not most high end cameras for af lock and accuracy. i found no deficiency and if any, they are very minor, even in low light.

what it boils down to for you is the handling or a perceived improvement of already very capable af system for weddings. i would always choose handling over just a bump in AF since these are both fine af systems.

gotta give up something to get something. make sure what you give up is not more than what you get, and only you can make that weighted decision.
