Different strokes ... The Panny is twice the weight and 2.5 times the volume of 
the Oly. For me, that's the difference 
between going in the bag and not. The Oly is amazingly small and light. Yes, it 
gets longer in use, but it's space in 
the bag that matters to me.

I'd rather have a 7-14, but a lens in the bag is worth so much more than one at 
home on the shelf.

I think he's legit. He may not agree with one's own experience on occasion, but 
the differences will be honest. I 
suspect they are the same in IQ in practical use.
