Silence? I guess many people are thinking how it compares to the 14-45mm...Will the 14-45mm be tested on GX1?
From the specs published in PZ I found that the max magnification ratio of the 14-45mm is 1:3@45mm and minimum focus distance 0.5m. Is this the FF-equivalent ratio or the native ratio (i.e., size of image on the sensor/size of the target)? If it is the native magnification ratio then it seems to have a much better macro ability than the 14-42 which has 1:6 with minimum focus distance 0.3m but I feel this is hard to believe. So I gues the 1:3 magnification ratio of the 14-45mm displayed here is the FF-equivalent ratio i.e. the native ratio multiplied by a factor of 2.
