Nathan -- I went cheap and bought a used 2.8/17 Oly lens for my G1.   
Wish I had paid up for the Panny 1.7/20mm.  The extra speed and IS  
would have been nice to have.  That said, the Olympus pancake is well- 
made and I've been pleased with the results -- plus the wider focal  
length is nice in some circumstances.
