They had the E-P2 with the (1.4 million pixel) EVF and I tried it. It is streets ahead of the Pana EVF that I have on my GF 1 - like looking at a HD TV rather than a grainy picture from the 1960's. Unfortunately, the Oly EVF won't fit on the GF 1 (we tried) so if you want or need the best EVF I have seen to date (and that includes the viewfinder in the G1 - which is also very good) you will have to buy the Olympus E-P2 with the 14 - 42mm kit lens. Hopefully Panasonic will reply soon with a better viewfinder for the GF 1. Another factoid. The salesman said that most buyers of the E-P2 kit also buy the pana 20mm f1.7. Now that I can understand!! Cheers Howard
