Actually, a follow-up: So is this lens an ok one to start out on? Canon FD 50 mm 1:1.8 lens. Is there anything it can't do in terms of video that a Panasonic micro 4/3 lens can?

Thanks Francisco!

I'm a journalist who has used a Panasonic AG-HMC150 for video but I'm a complete newb when it comes to photography, micro four thirds and DSLRs. But I just sold my HMC150 and picked up a used GH2 on the cheap. I don't understand the difference between any of the lenses listed above. Should I start with the 14-42mm kit lens? The guy who sold me the camera threw in a Canon adapter and an old Canon FD 50 mm 1:1.8 lens with it. Can I use that for learning photography and videography on the GH2? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. I bought the EOSHD guide but it didn't identify which lenses I should start with.
