Being able to auto focus and then finish the focussing manually without having to switch any buttons, appears to be a unique innovation in Olympus cameras

Errr ... Canon EF lenses with USM (most of them these days) can do this too, and the first examples predate the Olympus E system by several years.

I agree absolutely that this feature is a major convenience.

Well, I did say "unless I'm wrong" and it appears I was about it being an Oly innovation - so apologies to Canon there. It's not talked about much and I think it's an excellent feature, particularly with the longer zooms. Less than half of the Canon zooms currently listed have this feature however whereas all of the Oly lenses have it, so a little credit for Oly-Zuiko there at least.
