MessageThat's not entirely true. The Nikon G series lenses are designed
specifically for the digital bodies and the image circle will not fill the
full frame on a 35mm body. For example, the 12-24/4, which I own and love.

You're missing a VERY important point here, Winsor - Neither Nikon nor Canon
has designed a line of lenses specifically for use with their digital
bodies; and neither company contends that they have specific lenses that
produce the best images with their DSLRs. Olympus designed the camera and
lenses from the ground up, to be used together, and contend that using other
lenses will produce less than optimal images. So, again, why would they want
people running around getting less than optimal results with the E-1?
