Sorry, I never knew they corrected distortion for Pany lenses on Oly bodies.

I thought distortion correction was implemented cross-brands. e.g. I use the Pana 20mm f/1.7 on the E-P1, mostly jpeg, and never needed to do manual distortion correction. Uncorrected the lens has significant barrel distortion. The lack of CA correction is an Olympus only omission, but distortion correction seems to be implemented.

That is my understanding as well, RAW does not get corrected, JPEG does. (I almost always shoot JPEG, I don't have the time to do the correction post.) So in fact the Pana 20mm is even BETTER on the Oly bodies as you get IS.

The distortion correction information is in the lens itself, so as long as there is communication between camera and lens there is correction regardless of body. This, whether people like it of not (I like it) is the future.
And it does correct the RAW files, it just depends which converter you use. Silkypix, and lightroom corrects them automatically.
