I'm new to photography so excuse me if this is a dumb question ha ha but I have a Panasonic Lumix GH-1 DSLR camera and want to get a 50mm 2.8 or 1.8 lens for it. I've searched and can't find one from Panasonic, so found one from canon.

http://www.google.com/products/catalog?client=safari&q=50mm+lens&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&cid=6515082564231068200&sa=title#p

Will it still go on my Lumix?
Also, if that is not a great choice, do you have any suggestions? I don't really want to spend more than $200 for this lens.

It would seem I need to strengthen the spam filters.

At least they post them in the right board. Meh, I'll leave it. Entertain possible forum sightseers.
