Yes. I would/could/should have been very happy with nothing more than the original E-M5 and those two primes. Very special stuff from Olympus in the "good old days" of this format.

I agree as a former Nikon Shooter, never left the DX format, I started my trip down the MFT road with a Olympus PL1, but went the Original OMD (M5) hit the market I had to have one. I still have that body and have made some amazing images with it. I recently sold all my Nikon gear and used the $ to buy a used M5-MkII for its features the M5 doesn't have Focus peaking being one of them. I am generally happy with the MkII but have to say I really hate the articulated LCD screen. I don't like the way it has to hang out to the side of the body when all I want to do is get a tilt of the screen up or down.

I also think the original M5 had a look to the out of camera images that seems to be missing with the MkII
