Hi Nathan

Sorry, I meant that I wish that I liked the Olympus equivalent more.  The GF-1 
is a great little camera: it's extremely versatile in its ability to fit with 
different lenses, the display is excellent and the results are better than I 
deserve, especially with flash.

I don't have a camera as expensive as the M8, and the GF-1 is very valuable to 
me.  I wouldn't take my E-3 to a party as it is too big.

As you say, the GF-1/20mm combination is a great one.
