Sorry, I thought I was helping you out... not helping you out of your money.

Easy to spend the other guy's money. I have the EM5 mark II, and am
quite pleased, but I would be even happier with a simplified camera, not
a kid's toy. Who in their right mind does in camera photoshopping when
all they have is a tiny screen, and the file is forever damaged?
There is a current post on Kirk Tuck's website where he compares using
different cameras for different tasks. He recently shot almost identical
product shots with a Nikon D810 and a Sony R10. Guess which one won? He
draws comparisons between his choices and ownership of several different
cameras and systems to a professional chef's kit of knives.
And honestly what I really want is for Fuji to build a digital version
of the xPan
With maybe AF and white bal. Like that's going to happen.

Rent one.
Body: $33-75/5 days
<http://www.lensrentals.com/rent/micro-four-thirds/cameras>
All Lenses
<http://www.lensrentals.com/rent/micro-four-thirds/lenses>
Normal length (12-150mm)
<http://www.lensrentals.com/rent/micro-four-thirds/lenses/normal>
My recommendation for a starter lens... either:
12-50mm $33/5-days
<http://www.lensrentals.com/rent/micro-four-thirds/lenses/normal/olympus-12-50mm-f3.5-6.3-m.-zuiko-ez>
or 14-150mm II $37/5-days
<http://www.lensrentals.com/rent/micro-four-thirds/lenses/normal/olympus-14-150mm-f4.0-5.6-ii>
Total cost for
E-M1 - $75 + $25 shipping
14-150 II - $37 + $5 add-on shipping
$142 for 5 days usage. The E-M1 and both lenses are splash-proof
And/or buy one of these just before you rent (seller in NY, not China)
and use any of your OM lenses with the body. Cost $11.09 postpaid.

I would try one if I was nearer than 4 hours one way from a place that
might have one. But really, I would like a digital camera that has the
basic settings, ISO, color temp, shutter speed and f stop. I know, I'm
an old guy. And I can't imagine that any other OM digital would have a
more easily used system of menus.

I certainly wouldn't trade my E-M1 for an OM-4. Try one.
