To those folks who are shooting with the 20 mm Panasonic and Gf-1, I was 
wondering if the iso and grain is an issue over asa 400?
I looked at the camera yesterday in a store in the Forest City where I live 
and the salesman told me it should not be used, in his opinion over asa 100, 
and that he had shot some photos higher and they were grainy. He kind of 
softened a bit in talking and said certainly not over asa 400.
Anyway, he thought the electronic viewfinder was very good but did not have 
one in stock. By the way also does anyone know why the camera and 20 mm lens 
is not offered as a kit in the US but is in Canada where I live?

Sorry if this has been talked about before on the group. Also where does one 
buy the leica adapters for the GF-1 body and do the Leica lenses seem to 
work well. I understand the range is 2x with this sensor.

Thanks for comments,

Scott
