A Pen flagship will always feel very different to the EM series. Money permitting I would alwayd live to have a Pen as my social camera but alas I need my backup body to be more commercial orientated.

The EM1O ii seems to be a hotspot on deals and the mkiii seems to have been rather cool in reception.

Unless you need the best possible CAF performance the EM1 and EM1.2 is not necessarily "better" than an EM10 mkii or iii. I value the ability to shoot BIF with a 400mm lens which would be rather futile with any Oly other than an EM1 but for everyday photos I think the EM10 ii is great and Pen F even nicer (bar the price). Then there is the EM5 if you don't need the CAF of the EM1 but do want the weatherproofing... good luck!
