Thanks for the feedback. I'm not looking for the best in a small, easy to carry camera. I do wish the EM5Mk3 had a joystick, but then again, it is a whole lot less expensive than the EM1 and EM1X cameras.

I wish the PEN-F had phase AF. If it had, I would have gotten it over the Panasonix GX9. I guess the PEN line has run out..

The Pen F, while not having PDAF focusing, it does a pretty good job of catching action. The C-AF leaves a lot to be desired, but with S-AF if does pretty good.

This with the 14-150 on the Pen F (long shot with heavy crop)

That's pretty impressive actually. I tried to do some sports and action with the EM5Mk2 when I had it. It wasn't very easy.
