I just joined the forum and this would be my first post.

I have purchased a GX7 with 20mm kit - yet to receive the camera - in my country India - we don't get this camera officially.

Now, the OP mentioned ".....that Panasonic lenses have little UV protection hence all the threads about Purple fringing on Olympus bodies"

So, does that mean, I need to buy some filters to protect the lens?

Not unless you are actually experiencing purple fringing and want to treat it with a filter. Remember, a UV filter will also block some visible purple and hence alter your colours. And it may increase flare.
