2 things I wish the Epson had are vertical stretch to be able to use it with an anamorphic lens and most importantly to me lens shift and focus from the remote (as the Panny has), I find that so practical for lazy people like me, it also makes it easier to see what I'm doing without having to go back and forth between the screen and pj. If I were planning on upgrading my pj right now I would have a hard time deciding which one to get... They both have features I desire.
