Nathan,
My vote would be the OM 50mm F2.0 Macro lens. If you want something
smaller, lighter and less expensive, try the OM 50mm F 1.8. Neither of
these will overwhelm your GF-1...and you already know where to get the
adapter.

The M lenses I already own include a 3.8/24mm, several flavours of the 35mm
(including a Summicron ASPH), 1.4/50mm, 2.5/75mm and 2.8/90mm.
