I have been using a Nikon 20/2.8 D lens on the G1 for digiscoping so today I thought I would try the Nikon 300/4 AFS. This combo is the equivalent of a 600/4 MF lens and I can carry it around in one hand. I have the old 300/4 AF lens which might be better to use on a permanent basis as some consider it a sharper lens. It's easy to connect using the Panasonic adapter and a third party Nikon to Four Thirds adapter. I did most of the focusing using the Electronic Viewfinder but this was a bit hit or miss, particularly with moving subjects. Using the lcd was easier for me as I wear bi-focals.
