what are your considerations for the camera? what do you shoot? does weight/size matter? how long do you usually stay with a system? do you have GAS (Gear Acquisition syndrome)

Both are good cameras, do note that when you buy a camera, you also buy into its system of lens. EM-1 or the micro 4/3 format have quite a good selection of quality glasses from Olympus and Panasonic. I am sure Fuji also have a good collection of lens. What kind of 'look' do you prefer? Olympus colours are very natural and nice IMHO, Fujifilm has its own characteristics. Have you hands on these 2 cameras in terms of feel, handling, menu layout etc?
