Micro 4/3 camera...buying one or own one?

If so, which one!

Yeah I have a GF2 and I love it. And despite all of its shortcomings, and there are a few, I take it with me everywhere and shoot that thing to hell. Mine is pretty scratched up but because of the price I'll gladly be a little rough with it. Great little camera.

I have an Oly EPL-2. So far I really like it.

Just got my OM-D. Much easier to carry and less conspicuous than a full-size DSLR. Ordered the 20mm pancake with it, and I'm looking forward to some street photography with it.

GF3 which I've had for about 4 months now. Enjoy the smaller size and shooting with it. Still learning both its strengths and weaknesses.

Several years ago I got a pen-1 and used it as my point and shoot type camera. THen it was a pen-3, for basically the same reason;however, recently I got the OMD-Em5, use it more and more, and not just as a point and shoot , but as my basic camera. I can carry that and several lens when traveling and it is more fun and not as heavy as my d700. Have been happy with the results. Any issues, are the result of OP learning curve.

What defines a 4/3 camera? It its the sensor ratio, then a lot of cameras probably fall into that category.
My older Canon P&S (SX130) is 4000x3000.

ann, between you, Village Idiot and Gary (Seefutlung), I'm starting to get the OMD itch.

It's the sensor size. The diagonal is 1/2 that of a 35mm piece of film, which gives you a 2x crop factor.

Shot with OM-D and Dynalite MP800 (I think, which ever one has the pocket wizard in it) and an SH2000 head using a Kacey Enterprises beauty dish.
