[Leica] Oly question

[cummer at netvigator.com (H&ECummer)]

Hi Phil,
I would just second Nathan's comment - I have tried all sorts of Leica lens 
adaptor combinations on my G1, GF 1 and GH2 cameras and it is not a very 
satisfying exercise.
The panasonic lenses, like the 20mm f1.7 and the Olympic lenses, like the 
45mm f1.8 are so good and so easy to use they tend to be picked up and taken 
when I'm faced with real world situations. Of course YMMV.
