In my memory , only few lenses (both M4/3 & 4/3 lens) can focus automatically on G1. Right?

Interestingly enough (to me LOL), this morning I decided that I really wanted the WAzoom for the G1--be it the Panasonic 7-14 f/4 or the 9-18 (I can't bring myself to pay $1500 USD for a lens that won't be used that much, i.e., the Oly 7-14 f/4---and the 9-18 looks like a very good WA). I'm waiting now to see just what the Panny WA is like, price, but I'd like to have one of them (and of course with the Oly I will have to add the adaptor--elusive as it is LOL) by Summer here in the US--that's June. Speed of AF in a WA is not one of my important criteria either.Ranger, that's correct - the lumix kit lenses are optimised for m4/3rds CDAF... about on a par with entry level PDAF for speed, but the ability to CDAF anywhere in the image frame makes them seem even faster.
CDAF is the future imho.
Kind Regards

Question: I have read that not only do few lenses autofocus on the G1, but most other than the kit lens also autofocus rather slowly. Do you feel that this is true, or not?
