Give us a smaller, weather sealed, feature rich body ffs!

I think that would describe the Olympus EM5 series.  I had the EM5.2 and while it was feature rich, I also found the control surfaces to be too crowded.  I think Panasonic realized this which is why the Gnn bodies have grown a bit to improve ergonomics while the GXnn bodies continue to have a reduced control set.  Using the touchscreen to take up some of the slack via soft func buttons and the Quick Menu helps.

I'd like to see the 12-32 updated to include a manual focus ring and a new version of the 20/1.7 pancake with fast, silent AF.  As well, we're still missing a small, fast-ish, superwide AF prime (somewhere around 7-9mm at f/1.7-2.8).  Such a lens might entice me to sell my 8-18.
