This is absolutely true due to supported features on each brand.

Panasonic is improving their continuous AF performance with their DfD technology... which is only supported with select Panasonic lenses. If you mount Olympus lenses, they work but you won't get the DfD-enhanced C-AF.

OTOH the Olympus EM1.2 has Pro Capture and Focus Stacking... which is only supported with select Olympus lenses. If you mount a Panasonic lens, they work but you won't get Pro Capture nor Focus Stacking functionality.

So, which will it be?
