As I’m toying with the idea getting an E-P2, I have been reading as many reviews as are available. I was electrified to read the following sentence from one of the longer and more detailed of them:-
“Olympus Micro Four Thirds cameras can also (with an adaptor) use Panasonic/Leica Micro Four Third lenses.” [my emphasis]
I was ‘electrified’ because everything I have otherwise read left me with the impression that the Oly and Panny lenses for these micro four thirds cameras could be used interchangeably without the need for adaptors of any kind. If, as this reviewer writes, this is not the case, I would certainly scrap any idea of acquiring an E-P2 body, since I was planning to use the two Panny lenses I already have through buying a GF-1. ( I know, I know, why the hell am I thinking of getting a Pen why I already have the GF-1? Let’s not go there.)
Perhaps, as I suspect and hope, the reviewer has simply made a mistake. E-P1/P2 users please advise.
