I have noticed that all sellers I saw at ebay when sumarizing what is in the package do not mention the SD card - Why is that ?

I have seen also a seller advertizing an adaptor for M lenses to the G1 that will work also with a Pen E-P1. Does it means that the Pen and G1 have the same lens mount and all lens ADAPTERS are exchangeable between these cameras ?

Thanks,
Ruben

Ruben...

Yes, the G1 and E-P1 can use the same lenses (they are both same mount -- m4/3). Matter of fact, here's a shot taken with the E-P1 camera and the Panasonic 45-200 lens (no adaptor needed)...

The M-to-m4/3 adaptor that I bought (from CameraQuest.com) was original made for the G1. Works a charm on the E-P1.

Many thanks, this is a highly time/money saving info.

Anything about the lack of mention about the SD card in the package ?

Cheers,
Ruben

There is no SD card in the package.

Thanks again, I will bypass coment. But I have ordered one. One G1 blue, selling very cheap these days, perhaps due to the failure in marketing the blue color ones.

Cheers,
Ruben

Just out of curiosity does the G1 have any built in memory?

No...
