Great but somewhat crippled
I have the PL1 and the PL7 and I dearly love them, especially the 7. The PL9 shoots the same beautiful images, is light and versatile , etc. so I love it, too. Plus it is downright beautiful to look at!
BUT I cannot give it 5 stars because Olympus for some totally bananas reason chose to eliminate some features that I will miss dearly. Foremost, they got rid of MySets. I loved that feature and I loved tying it to an unused position on the mode dial. All gone now. Secondly, with the 9 you can only reprogram two buttons. So if I'm shooting MF I can set one to magnify, and one to peaking. That leaves NO button for starting a video recording since that's one of the buttons that gets reprogrammed! Realizing that was a very big WTH moment. Those things aside, it is a wonderful and beautiful camera.
