I'd love to have the OIS but I bought a new Oly 45 for only $250, and the first pictures I took with it impressed me such that I believe it's the sharpest lens I have. Besides, I think to get the most out of m43, I'll need a camera with IBIS - which will open up more usage possibilities for lenses lacking OIS. It's a shame Panasonic doesn't seem to embrace this aspect - while neither competing as well with Olympus on price and discounts.
