Not really drolling, but it's a good thing. A great (or not so great - depends on your point of view) example what E-P4 should look like. The Built-in EVF, Focus peaking, quick dials, are something that I really miss with Olympus. The megapixel war is something that I do not.

The biggest problem I have with these kind of camera's is the shape, and the fact that the sensor's are so vulnerable. They need a system that when you detach the lens, something get's in front of the sensor. Maybe only to prevent dust to attach to it. That's not only with this camera, but also with the E-Px , I don't have a Nikon or Pentax or Panasonic type camera so I don't know if the same is there.
What I like of this camera is that you really can use exposure compensation, and that aperture is so easily adjustable.

If Sony figures out how to make smaller lenses they'll own...

Looks like a nice cam indeed ?
But why not buy Sony Alpha SLT-A35 instead ?
Is half price, also rather small and has very good image quality .

I wouldn't mind owning one of those if it was cheaper.

same here, like the controls , ive heard the ep3 requires a menu dive for iso, is that true, and those lenses, why does a 35mm equiv need to be the size of a coke can?

You can customize the buttons on the E-P3 to set ISO to one of the dials. I don't really see the NEX7 as an E-P3 replacement, but rather I dare to say Leica M9 replacement.
