Congratulations on making the jump, the sky must really be falling now! :-)
You'll love the 7-14mm, it really is a wide-angle lovers dream. Filters can't
be used on the lens, the front element is just too large to put anything in
front of it (except the cap :-). There are no provisions for rear filters
either. The only downside to the lens is it's size, it's a huge beast so get
those muscles exercised!

An SHLD-2 battery grip/pack balances out the E-1 nicely. The FS-2 grid screen
really helps with the 7-14mm. I also like the larger EP-2 eyecup. A large
bank account also helps :-)
