This is why the only thing that makes sense of the hype is that it is a
FF EVIL system.  A m4/3 body with built-in EVF is so yesterday that they
wouldn't waste their coyness on it.  

The problem for us is that we probably don't have a single lens of any
kind that will mount, or will ever mount, on a FF EVIL body.
