Times ago I also bought a Panasonic, I think it was GF5 with 14-42. Liked the touchscreen, disliked some other things but for 200$ new...
Whenever I looked lateron at the offerings of Olympus and Panasonic, I found the buttons and the bodies just a tad too fiddly. For my hands, the Fujfeeling is better ^_^ So, I pass the µ 4/3 systems as there's stil this prejudice in me, the Fuji sensors have better DR and less noise - but please, just let me have this dream. At the end of the day it doesn't matter much if it's APS-C or µ 4/3.
DoF tables are another kind of voodoo in my eyes, I strictly don't believe in them especially when they try to convince me, f/2.8 and f/4 with an 85 mm are the same 0.09 m DoF and I think for myself, I would not believe this data if it would be only the half of it... (source: DoF Rechner from neyMedia).
To me, FF is more like getting enough resolution for big prints with a bit of crop reserve. Packing too much MP on a small sensor will deliver no good results, after doing some A3 photobooks and using double pages (80 cm) with some crop and very nice details, I know what a FF is good for. Now, in two weeks I'm off to Portugal and see what the Fuji can do.
