Re: Upgrade from Olympus E-P3?

went from E-PL2 to E-M10 last year so I am in an analogous position  -- the newer generation sensor is definitely an upgrade on IQ, so I urge you to move up to any of the Oly's with the newer sensor, depending on which feature set appeals most to you.  much as I loved the PEN format, the lure of a built in VF pulled me over to the OM-D side.

you cannot go wrong with any of the fast m/43 primes -- focal length is a very personal choice.  I had the 14 but found I didn't use it much -- preferred shooting with the Panny 20, the Oly 45 and especially the Oly 60 macro (I do a lot of closeup flower shooting).  I recently has some experience shooting at 12mm and greatly preferred it to 14mm so my next lens will either be a 12 prime or one of the zooms that starts at 12.
