Re: Since you favor the EM1..

The menus are basically the same, except where the E-PL8 is lacking in features the EM1 has, color rendition and tonality will be similar if not the same.

In my opinion, as someone who owns the E-PL7 and the VF4, though excellent, I find the VF4 really cumbersome and protruding on the small PEN, and it partially negates the portability advantage of the Pen lite cameras. I find the vf2 best matching the small PEN line cameras.

Cheers
