Indeed, it is. The lenses just are great. I have a large Olympus setup. Could I have gotten any full frame camera? Yes, but for most tasks I consider the Olympu

  I agree, and I would love to try a Leica, but I don't have that kind of money for one among several hobbies. :-) I also don't get this term "full frame". When I started photography, "full frame" was 120 format. 35mm was "compact camera". And I think you need to go to 120 (at least) to do noticeably better than Olympus micro four-thirds.

    It is just a term which got established. Most of the times, I just talk about the 35mm format. The best explanation is, that Canon and Nikon used to sell digital versions of their 35mm camera with smaller sensors. And when they started to make 35mm digital sensors, these cameras were "full frame", as the digital camera had the same sensor size as the film cameras of the same system had. I don't care to much about those terms, I am happy with Olympus. With respect to the Leica: if you can trust your self control, by all means try out a Leica, it is an experience one should have. But yes, deposit your credit card at a safe place, they are lovely. For me the downfall was that I bought a M-mount Voigtländer 40/1.4 as a short tele lens for mFT, back then when there where not many prime lenses to choose from. It works lovely on a digital M :)
