Overall picture quality, Overall video quality (1080 50i and 720p), Very fast autofocus in photo and video modes, general responsiveness, Swivel LCD touchscreen, large electronic viewfinder, Plenty of micro fourthirds lenses now available
Very (too) noisy shutter release, Battery life a little on the short side, Electronic viewfinder: accuracy, fluidity and dynamic range could be better, Proprietary USB 2 connection
