Mike - you say "...and you couldn't mix and match..." If your hypothetical situation allows me to mix and match lenses from different generations on the one generation body, I will go with the MZ-S every time. I have been giving serious thought to downsizing my collection of bodies and lenses; I have about decided that the good features of the LX just don't get used by me all that often, and I should sell them. On the other hand, mostly I am using K or A series lenses on my MZ-S. If your situation required me to use F and FA lenses on the MZ-S, I would go back to the LX.
