OMD - Small with grace and power

I have finally decided now is the time to part company with my D700 that has served me well but now only gets used two or three times a year, the combination of size, weight and lack of use convinced me it was time to replace it.
After much deliberation, reading and talking to users I decided to get the Olympus OMD EM-5 and now have the challenge of keeping the learning curve as short as possible.
Below is a photo of the kit.


These are some of my first images with the OMD having only collected it yesterday - so far, so good!
