VF-4 is nice but inconvenient
1

As a former owner of VF-4 and E-PL6, I have to mention that the VF-4 is an amazing viewfinder but inconvenient. It's large and while you could keep it on your camera all the time it does add to the bulk and makes a beautiful camera look strange. I primarly shoot with the LCD so the use was very limited and I am happy with the substantially inferior GX80 viewfinder for occasionally VF shots just because it's always there.

VF-4 is also 120-130€ or so from Ebay which may be substantial. I paid 200€ for my E-PL6 kit so the  price was very substantial, but at least right now they seem to be fairly ressellable. I managed to get most of what I paid back.
