Of course, due to the size of the sensor, the lenses are kinda big.

I quickly tried the PEN and NEX and was pleasantly surprised at how fast the AF was on the NEX. Unfortunately their kits can't be interchanged (like NEX-5 and pancake) atm or so I'm told, so I'll wait a bit. The zoom kit looks kinda funny with the NEX, but it seems well built. Personally I think it defeats the portability, but it's still smaller than the smallest SLRs. Plus panorama sweep is so cool I love it on my TX-7.
Also the prices for the NEXs given the specs was really good (cheaper than the other 2 EVIL cams).
I haven't tried the Pana G series, but given the reviews on the 20mm I'm still keen on pairing that with a PEN.
