E-P5, what next?

Hello.
I have E-P5 with lenses:
Oly 25/1.8
Sigma 60/2.8
Also i waiting for Panasonic 14-140/3.5-5.6 from Japan.

So i think about new Olympus body for summer traveling. Is it a good idea to change P5 to M10 II or M5 II ? From japanese auction it can be easilly purchsed for $520 and $650 with delivery.
Why i want new one? I don't like portable VF4 viewer on E-P5 - it is a bit big and have bad form.
Also i want better video capture and better grip handling.
What i should buy or it is time to wait future Mark III cameras?

Re: E-P5, what next?

EM5II is interestingly priced now... When EM5III will be released it will probably be around $1200. Unless you are willing to spend that much, there is no point waiting.
Beware that IQ will be the same between EP5 and EM5II. Basically only the body shape changes, and you get a few more features (like hi-res) but don't expect more. EM10II is good too, has integrated flash but I like the buttons layout less than EM5II...
