Yup. As of last Wednesday, when I got mine, they had about 55 left, so it sounds like they're going fast.

I've been delighted with mine thus far. I used it for street photography in NYC on Saturday and to shoot casuals of my friends on our bicycle ride today. Very user friendly, I think!

So .. are you getting the lensmate (http://www.lensmateonline.com/) adapters anytime soon? Seems like everyone I know with a G3 or G5 makes that one of their next purchases if they didn't order it before the camera? I love mine (2 x 52mm and 1 x 58mm). Helps protect the lens in case you haven't seen the earlier discussions about them. I'm not associated with them I just really love their product.

Actually, I got 2 of the Canon adapters at a local store for $35 (total, not apiece) I am getting 2 more soon, for my other lenses.

Unsurprisingly, I have a Lensmate 52mm adapter on order. Looking forward to it, based on the universally positive reviews.

Cheers,

Got the lensmate 52mm. It's just as good as everyone says. Positive engagement, looks like a stock piece, and _really_ improves the handling of the camera.

Only downside... Now the camera won't fit in a LowePro D-Res 25, which is my preferred camera bag.
