What do you like shoot? What are your favorite focal lengths, and do you ever use teles or super teles?

I'd wait and see what the E-M1iii brings before making any move. We're half a month away, apparently. It, and a potential new standard zoom, may shift the landscape somewhat.

The E-M5iii would make an excellent tiny companion to your E-M1X, if you want similar performance and menu system in something a quarter of the size.

The E-M5iii does not have the performance of the E-M1X.  The E-M5iii has almost the same performance as the E-M1ii.  The performance of the E-M1X is noticeably better than the E-M1ii.

Menu-wise the E-M1X has "My menu", while the E-M5iii does not.

Cheers,

Rick
