Hi another question.....

I have an Epm1, I am thinking about getting the Panasonic Lecia 45mm. Its obviously a lot of money by the time you add a port to the cost of the lens. Is the quality of the 45mm pan lens much better than the oly kit lens?
Would I be better off just getting a threaded macro wet lens to add to the housing??
Any other ideas would be good to hear or example pics if anyone has both lenses.

Big difference in image quality between the two lenses and the 45 is a true macro that goes to 1:1 (17.3X13mm on the M43 cameras). This is a another case of you get what you pay for.

Thanks Phil,
I thought as much but it's a lot of money to spend if there is not a big difference so I wanted to ask the question.
