I thought the size difference between the Pen-F and the E-P5 are only a few mm's.

But I would choose the E-P5 over the E-PL8 between the two.

Size is close... (from the specs in the user manuals)....

................Width................Height........Thickness.............Weight

E-P5......122.3mm..........68.7mm.........37.2mm...........420grams

Pen-F.....124.8mm.........72.1mm..........37.3mm..........427grams

E-PL8.....117.1mm.........68.3mm..........38.4mm..........374grams

Of course for me as a screen only user, the flip-out sideways screen of the Pen-F makes it a lot wider (I need a tilt screen), liable to hit things if not careful. So not for me.
