I don't think so, what important is coverage and focal length, a 16mm is a 
16mm, it is a 32mm in 4/3, still a wide angle. Olympus can make such a small 
25/2.8, that means AF is not the point for heavy and large.

If your theory is right, my 5050's F1.8 lens must be very big, it's sensor 
is samller than 4/3 and started at 7.1mm!
