I have for a time had my Olympus E-P3+VF2 up for trade here and I have been on the fence about it. What I have been wanting is an X10 and as I already have an E-P1 and G2 I am not finding that the E-P3 really gives me anything I already don't already have in the other two cameras. In fact, the Panasonic G2 is far and away my favorite m43 camera. I have the P14, P20 and O45 lenses so I feel like the third body (the E-P3) is redundant and frankly not getting much use. I asked the question on mu-43 (I spend more time there) if an E-P3+VF2 for X10 seemed like a good trade or was I batty for considering it. Of course being the "home team" pretty much everyone thought I was nuts (and that's understandable of course as they already think I'm batty for preferring the G2 to the E-P3) but I am curious what current X10 owners think of it. What appeals to me about the X10 is better handling as I find the controls and the form of the E-P3 to being uncomfortable to hold and use, and from what I have seen the X10 has better low light/high ISO capabilities than m43. In fact judging by the images I've seen I find the IQ remarkably similar. What do you think of the X10?
Caveat...I have no local shops where I can go take a look at one. I have done quite a bit of research this far and so far the X10 seems like a VERY interesting camera.
