Reviewers seem to say the entire shutter cycle is electronic. Others just
mention it; Reichman talks about the total
lack of shutter mechanical wear in time lapse photography.

I don't imagine it's worse than in the lighter PL and PM bodies.

Well, yes and no. My recently posted flutterby and hummingbird shots were taken
with delay on. OTOH, I do have some nice
shots of foliage, empty skies, etc. where the fast moving subject left the
frame. How many of those shots might have
been good without the delay, I don't know. Nailing focus and avoiding motion
blur would still be difficult for many
shots/subjects.
So, for most work, it's no problem at all. For fast moving critters, it's still
possible to get great shots, but no
delay would be quite nice. ;-)
