Originally posted by rawr That's exactly what I discovered shortly after I bought my NEX-5 a year or so ago. It sits in the cupboard a lot now.
It's funny. I've gone precisely the other way. My K-7 sits in the drawer much of the time.
I agree about the kit lens though. That's why I recently bought the sigma 30mm for my NEX-5n.
The size thing is relevant. If you are going to buy a compact for your pocket, you need a compact for your pocket. My objections of 4/3 were not lens related, they were quality related.
Key point to me that is relevant to the topic is that whatever is ergonomic is appropriate. If you need to buy the grip to make it so for you, then do it.
Not everyone wants something the size of a D4.
