I'm thinking about upgrading from my compact camera to a Panasonic GF1 in the micro four thirds range.
This camera seems to only come with 2 kit lens options, you either can go for the body with a 20mm pancake lens or the body with a 14-45mm kit lens. Now as I said I previous have owned a number of small compact cameras the current one being a canon G9, all of which had a zoom lens no bigger than a 6x zoom capacity.
I like the look of the pancake lens as I like architectural photography and this could be really useful. But I also need to use the camera to record my work as an art department assistant in the film industry, both in the documentation of the props I make and on film sets.
At the moment I can only afford one and in the future would want to establish a collection of lenses to suit the occasion but for now I need to know which would be best for general all round use.
The 14-45mm will be the best option as this covers the 20mm range that you also want
