Well, as mentioned, you'll need a high quality 0.5x adaptor, and 
hmm... with the high res 5x/10x mag for manual focus, hmmm.... the 
first person that comes up with something like this could make a 
bundle. I mean, the G1 camera (and whatever else coming down the pipe 
from Oly etc.) and the adaptor is probably less than the price of the 
new Noct's lenscap :-)
