Anyone got one of these? Thinking of purchasing one, wondered what lens to go for?

Yep - had it for a year now and love it. I think lens choice depends on whether you plan to have one lens or a variety. The 14-45 kit lens is good enough but there are some very good alternatives. Eg I use and like the45mm Macro.

Here is a selection: http://www.flickr.com/photos/45190314@N04/sets/721...

Beware a GF2 is due out in January - bit smaller with some addded video tech.

I don't but a friend has one, and I've used it a little.

I'd definitely go with the F1.7 20mm.

Equates to something like 40mm on a full frame camera and has a nice depth of field to it and of course works rather nice in low light.

They are nice cameras, a couple of friends have them. There's also this Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 lens coming up that will be compatible with it:

Nice.
