Not that much heavier, but if AF is a must for all your lenses, I would personally choose the Panasonic GX1, which to me best combines the good camera control, IQ and small size of the MFT camera lines. Secondly, the Samsung NX210, which to me has the best choice of lenses, allthough somewhat bulkier than the mft cameras like the GX1.

Hi Wolf,
Do you mean to me as in your personal preference?
The thing is that there are quite a few native lenses available for MFT, more so than for any other compact system camera, from fisheye to (U)WA to long tele in zooms and primes, from Panasonic, Olympus, Samyang, Sigma, Voigtländer, Leica and SLR Magic. And good quality too, generally speaking. Plus, many adapters are available for using manual primes (I currently have 4 different ones <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />), plus FT adapters which even allow for AF use of FT lenses - works well be it a little slow.
Kind regards, Wim
