For the smaller lenses you don't really need the grip. For larger and heavier (Leica) it is very handy. Like you I thought I would only use one part grip. I prefer either no grip or full grip not just half. Half changes the way you hold the camera just enough for me not to like it.I notice that in all of these photos the 2 part grip is being used. I was hoping to not use it if I succumb after Photokina. With something like the PL 25/1.4 (I'm rarely a tele shooter though the 12-35/2.8 may be on my wish list for larger lens)would you feel it still would be better ergonomically with the grip?? IQ think I might like the grip but ot the battery/portrait part. I shot with a grip for many years on a DSLR so do know the advantages.
