Apparently the AF on the EP1 is quite slow.
It\'s ironic that you\'d spend so much time making a case against the E-P1 based on size when used with manual lenses, and then bring up a complaint against the AF. Do you really care about AF anyway?
I don\'t know how comfortable I\'m going to be manually focussing with an EP1. I use Canon\'s Liveview zoom mode in a small minority of shots. If the EP1\'s monitor doesn\'t allow me to manually focus accurately enough, I may be forced to use AF. The crux of this is \"will I be able to focus quickly and accurately enough with an EP1\". That\'s why I\'m concerned. With EOS SLRs I know where the speed and accuracy limits of manual and auto focus are.
I\'m not making a case against the EP1, and an EP1/17mm are on my shopping list, pretty much regardless of how easy/quick/accurate it is to focus.
