The mirco 4/3rds is a very new system at launch only the two kit lenses were available specifically for the system though you can get an adapter to allow the use of standard 4/3rds lenses. As I understand it not all of the 4/3rds lenses with AF on the G1 but they are releasing firmware fixes to solve this with many lenses. I know that you can get a 1:1 macro lens for the 4/3rds system but do not know of any that give higher magnification. What sort of size are the subjects you want to shoot? A 1:1 macro will get you in very close unless the suject is really small. Adding extension tubes to a macro will give you a bit of extra mag but still wouldn't take you to 4x life size.
