Looking at some of these cameras... Ability to blur background is a must. Sample photos much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Sorry, no examples. But according to the DoF calculator, the depth of field is the same as a 35mm film camera set to two more f-stops.
E.g, the DoF of a 4/3 camera at f/2 would be the same as a film camera at f/4.
If you want to have 35mm-like DOF on 4/3, couldn't you just get an adapter and use legacy 35mm lenses on the 4/3 body? Cropping does not change the DOF, does it? DOF is a property of the lense, not the sensor.
..for selective focus on a Four Thirds camera you will need large apertures or long focal lengths or both. Life itself is a compromise.

Basically, you'll get shallow depth of field on up close objects and not much else... better than small sensor P&S cameras, but not like 35mm film.
