Joel, no disagreements about the Panasonic 20/1.7 lens, if I were to  
be in the market
for en E-P1/2, I'd get one in a heartbeat, an excellent lens it seems.  
I was commenting
on the colours and noise of the image in the link you posted to.

Sorry if I came across as harsh. I guess I just had higher  
expectations than what
Olympus did here, and not unreasonable ones, I believe, considering  
their Pen and OM
systems history.

regards,
Dawid (also always a bit of a clod) Loubser
