Maybe I should hold off on my EP-3 order... this looks very promising.

it does if you are a legacy manual focus guy

if you need fast AF compact primes E-P3 might be better

I thought this was supposed to have in body stabilization. Or maybe that was NEX 9.

I'm hoping that Olympus eventually does something similar, because I'm sure as hell not giving up on my pro and top pro lenses, if they dump PDAF.

The E-P3 focuses just as fast, as people have been hinting at. I bought it with the 17mm F2.8 and it's lightning quick.

The new 24mm 1.8 lens is $1000 at b&h. Too expensive. I think I will pass and stick with the Pen 3.

i played with the prototype and was pretty impressed with the camera, in
fact this system as a whole is a great product, just a bit too small for my hands to hold for any length of time.
