Yep.

Which is why olympus has the best affordable stalker lens money can buy - its 70-300 lens is only about RM1.6K the most. And you get a 600MM equivalent!
And its a Super High Grade Lens even.

(olympus has three types of lens - Standard, High Grade and Super High Grade)

I am waiting for next year though - Olympus will announce two new lenses for the mFT system. - a Prime and a High-Magnification telezoom.

My current concern is for me to get a flash though.

Any place in malaysia i can try out the Metz 20-C? i have tried out Olympus's FL-14 and FL-20, so now wanna see if Metz is any better.

Uh, cant remember on top of my head.

queness: if you put the 18-200 on the GF1, well....

You are akin like putting a stadium spotlight infront of a kancil.

He's not saying that he's waiting for Panasonic/Olympus to improve 2x focal length.
He just meant that some feature is left out and some weakness in them like not
flash/viewfinder in E-P1 and AF might be a bit slow... wink.gif

Cool man, you get totally what I meant. smile.gif If I need very long focal length, I will hook it up to my telescope which has 2000mm.

It looks like it doesn't have a pop up flash. Or does it? it's too small to tell.

And bloody expensive.

If you think the E-P1 is expensive - check out the RRP of this machine.

And also the price of the EVF....ouch.

It makes the E-P1 looks very affordable.

Still Olympus E-P1 advantages over GF1. Although GF1 got built in flash.

Some advantages la. GF1 has a GN6 flash, optional EVF, higher screen rez, and the lenses *drool*

BUT, personally i like the layout of the E-P1 better, uncluttered button layout, NOT BLACK, and dual wheel control.
