[QUOTE="mathom33, post: 299136, member: 22304"] Having just moved from a mirrorless system I would recommend that you get either a Panasonic or Olympus. Their lenses are interchangeable with each other. You can buy adapters to use legacy lenses, but it gets trickier with panasonic because most of their cameras have the image stabilization in the lens whereas Olympus has them in body. If I had to do it over I would go with in body image stabilization. Panasonic does have the GX7 which to my understanding is a great camera, but the Olympus omd em10's reviews on the mu43 forum seems to be the favorite. Any other models like Nikon and Sony will be limited to the number of electronic lenses. Something else to consider is if you want to have a viewfinder or not. The newer (high end) models for Oly and Panny were coming out with them. Otherwise you'll be using the screen for all of your shots. Panny did have an electronic viewfinder that mounts directly to the shoe mount, but you'll lose the ability to use a shoe mount flash. The GX1 I had was a great camera. If you decided to go with Olympus or Panasonic and are looking for a zoom lens, the panasonic 45-150 is a bit sharper than the 45-200. I had the power zoom lens which was neat at first, but I realized that using an electronic switch to zoom and focus was more annoying than it was helpful. Where it made up for the price was the compactness of the lens. [/QUOTE]
