Yeah. AF in general was hard to get used to for me...

Especially side by side with an OM4 it's tiny :). But if you don't have
it side by side, it's fine for me. Bright and clear, easy to focus (I
have the grid screen).

Quite. I was tempted to get the body with 11-22 only, but my vendor
convinced me I'd never get the 14-54 for the kit price later on. And it
is nice with the macro functin for overall use.

That's something I was irritated by in the beginning too. Coming from
the nice ascetic OMs....though I got used to that quickly too. The font
is nice :)

But with a definite contact point (don't know a better word for it),
right? And nice to be able to stay halfpressed when shooting in serial mode.

Yes :))

It's so tiny! When I had to change focussing sreen (it comes in the
original OM focussing screen box, but the squeezers are a bit different
- worse for my taste), I thought I needed a magnifying glass :))) (or
maybe just glasses....)
cheers!
