You might like this one. 
I told the OLy Aus MD that it looked like someone had locked an OM 1 and an 
E-PL3 in a shoebox and then presented the offspring.
It's a bit small alone but the screw on battery grip is very clever indeed. 
Two piece - grip only or grip and battery pack. 
Lots of lenses announced - the 75mm f1.8 looks impressive. And the new Macro.
The 12-60mm 'kit' lens is a tad slow aperture compared to big brother but has a 
clever feature - push/pull clutch zoom ring for either electronic or manual 
zooming. I didn't like the electonic zoom much but the manual is good.
Lens and body are weatherproof.
Focus is very fast in low light.

A lot of what I fondled was pre-production or dummy. 
Long day - two flights, long taxi rides, presentation, scratch editorial 
meeting, networking,  looooong lunch.
Going bed now.
Tired.
