I've been looking for an alternative to a Canon G9 I bought last year and sold. I finally decided yesterday on an Olympus E-410. Although it doesn't quite fit in your pocket it is very small and compact and the kit comes with not one but two Zuiko 4/3 lenses for $399.95 from B&H. I'm thinking that perhaps I'll sell the two lenses and get the 14-150 Vario Elmarit but I still haven't heard anyone say it is a fantastic lens and worth the extra money for the Leica label. The 25mm 1.4 sounds like a real winner. Can anyone post some pictures using Panasonic/Leica lenses? How do these perform on the less expensive Olympus DSLR's?
