You have options like the 9-18 or even 7-14 and you have the 12mm prime that are all a good bit wider than the 28mm EFL of the Fuji. The Nex has the same focal length as the 12mm in the 16, but its not nearly as nice a lens, and there's nothing wider AFAIK. I did a good bit of UWA shooting near downtown. The OMD IQ is very very good - the more I see on the larger monitor (and realize how much I missed it with just the ipad for both viewing and processing), the more impressed I am. The X-Pro 1 IQ is amazing, but the OMD is surprisingly close to amazing and the versatility of m43 beats either of the other two by a good margin at this point, particularly at the more extreme wide and long ends....I did a TON of shooting with the 12mm in New York (most of the street stuff and some other work as well). Less with the 9-18, but here are a few 9-18 shots. The one of the memorial is with the EPL3, the others with the OMD. At Flickr sizes, I don't think you'd have been able to tell the difference between the cameras without snapseed either, even the low light shots. I wouldn't want to have done a trip like this without a wide angle, and in retrospect I should have used it more than I did...[ATTACH=full]53139[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]180676[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]53140[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]53141[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]53142[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]53143[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
