I am a Leica user, but I also used to have a GF-1 for taking with me everywhere 
(the Fuji X100 now fits that purpose, the GF-1 has been given to my daughter). 
At varying times, I owned several of the lenses Frank mentions, including the 
1.4/25mm, the 2.8/45mm macro, and the  7-14mm. Finally, I got rid of them all, 
except the 1.7/20mm Panasonic, which I find to be fully on par with my Leica 
lenses--and I do not say such things lightly.

Cheers,
Nathan
