Now that is when the fun really starts mate!

I have one for my olly and there is some amazing lenses on ebay and second hand shops, you might want to get a m42 as well. just remember a 28mm om lens will be 56mm on four thirds
 
your G1 takes some excellent shots by the way im very impressed with the image quality. you have really Mastered the street photography scene loving the B/w shots as well man
 
thanks chris...

i know what you mean about the lenses. i can use a 50mm f1.8 zuiko as a 100mm equivalent portrait lens. the 135mm f3.5 becomes a useful 270mm lens. the zuiko lenses are good quality, i picked up the 135mm for £19 at ffordes, 50mm was £20 on ebay. the adapter was under £30 and is really good quality so i am tempted to get another and keep one on each lens...
 
wonderful shots of liam.. he's very photogenic..

that old guy looks a character!

excellent mate, you might want to keep your eye out for a 28mm and the 24 isn't half bad either. Good idea regarding extra adapters, its a pain in the arse when your out and about and change lenses lol
 
i thought about the 24/28mm lenses but i am really happy with the panasonic 20mm...

catch up time...

its a bit late but i completely forgot to do it!

overall i am happy with the set, too much fruit but i was stuck in the house for a few very busy days. going through the motions really. this month i have decided to use previous days shots if i have nothing else so as to keep up the quality (well, hopefully anyway!)
