Hello all, I am planning on getting a Panny G7 in the next few weeks. I'm going to be getting it with the 14-42 kit lens and soon after buying a telephoto. I want to get a prime lens for my camera both for better low light performance and also for a simpler and smaller package. I am looking into sub- 500 dollar primes which I feel has a good selection. What is the best prime for the job? Thanks!

Get two: Panasonic 42.5 f1.7 for portraits (has OIS in contrast to Oly's 45 f1.8) and a Panasonic 20mm or 25 f1.7.
