Re: Just about to pull the trigger - GX7, 20mm, 45mm

The GX7 is my favorite camera to date, the 20mm is my favorite lens, and the 45mm has been my second-most-used lens, though with relatively recent acquisitions of the 7-14 and 75 I'm not sure it is still in second place. I think you've got a good plan there (GX7, 20, and 45), and if you also want the GM1, skipping any 14-Xmm zoom with the GX7 and waiting for the tiny and apparently quite good 12-32 makes a lot of sense to me, too.

If your wife really wants a viewfinder (as do I), that's just a feature that you can't fairly omit, so getting the GX7 first is a good idea. I bet you will both end up liking both bodies, even though each of you may prefer one over the other, and those will be three great lenses for both bodies.
