I've ridden Zeros before. Just not the DS:

Awesome! Enjoy! I see the range has improved substantially from last year.
I'll follow with interest.

For those of you who remember the motion picture "Fitzcarraldo" from Werner Herzog with Klaus Kinski starring...

The grave of the real Fitzcarrald, found on the Cementerio General in Iquitos, Peru. He died in 1897 and the grave was erected by his co-partner.

Just bought a E-M10 to replace my Q7 kit. Love the Q but the lack of a view finder finally did it for me. I love this new camera, just have to get used to the settings. If I move any dials is there a button to press to return to the way it was? I can see me never using my K5 as this camera is so easy to carry and so much fun.

I don't believe so. I could be wrong (I have an EM-5), but I believe there's only three dials: the mode dials and the two scroll dials. The mode dials determines what the scroll dials will do (although they can be programmed a bit in the menu). There is a selection in the menu which will return menu settings to the original default.

The OM-D cameras have what is largely a programmable interface, which makes a lot of sense in a compact camera, as real estate on such a device is precious, and you don't want to force users to have a control they're never going to use. But the flip side is that if you have to get into the menus and actually program them by hand (or live with the defaults, whatever those happen to be).

I have an EM-5 which must be very similar. On mine, you can register a particular combination of settings and then assign a function button to recall them when it's pressed. On mine it's called "Registering Favorites settings (Myset)" and the howto of the Myset stuff is in the user manual. Yes these are fun cameras for sure, responsive and very easy to carry around. If you don't know it already, there is quite a good blog by an Olympus person with a lot of info in it about cameras, settings and lenses: https://robinwong.blogspot.co.uk/
