Only if you stick that that label on an E-M1. They have announced the end of
development of DSLRs. Oly went to a LOT of
trouble to make the next 4/3 camera in the E-M1. You are the sort of folks they
did it for.
Their next camera could have been just as good in all the ways others buy it
for - for less investment, and at a lower
price, had they not decided not to abandon their loyal 4/3 customers.

Good luck with that. I've never owned a piece of 4/3 gear. Looked at some, but
never bit. So I'm not in the game. FWIW,
I think the EVFs on the OMDs are better than the little tunnels on the three
digit E-thingies.
