Except that 4/3rd is half the size of the M8 cropped 1.33x format;
Which deals with a true wide angle like the Schneider super Angulon 3.4
quite well.

Robert tells me the sensors on the 4/3s cameras are optimized for the glass
designed for that system which is very straight back light path.

Frankly if I had a G1 It's just use their glass with it.

What about a Panasonic Standard 25mm f/1.4 Leica D Summilux Aspherical Lens
for Four Thirds System?

I bet it lights up and says "kiss me baby".
