I'm going to talk to Olypus and see if I can get confirmation on this. Thanks for mentioning it!
A lot of preview articles on the E-5 mention the lighter filter, although no one has cited or shown anything authoritative to confirm it. Personally, I hope it's true and that they go that route with any other new models.

As far as the side discussion on full frame cameras, it's one of those things that I'd love to have but would rarely need to use for my purposes. Honestly, my photos would benefit far more from better technique/timing/composition instead.
