What do you do with the Panasonic if you need a polarizer or a grad filter? You just don't take a shot.

Ok, it's Olympus lens, with Olympus design, but there's already this range with lens from panasonic. It's just anothers slow zooms. The only lenses than can make me buy a µ4/3 is the two panasonic prime, especially the future 14mm f2.8. For now, i use a compact, with a equiv 28 f2.6. If i buy a dslr or a µ4/3 it's not to put a slow zoom on it or an entry level zoom kit. Perhaps my next camera will be the Canon S90, another compact, but with a 28 f2, and a rather good image quality (for a compact). But the price of this beast is two high, i hate the 1$=1€ rule :( I dream of a simple camera, with a speed barrel on the body, a aperture control ring on the lens, a good view screen and fast prime. well, something different than all those similar dslr or compact.

I mean, other than the size advantage, I thought the m43 concept was going to make it possible to design fast wide lenses? Why so slow?
