My G1 is a silver label type and from what I can make out having read through some of the threads this means I'm restricted to using the 28mm, 45mm and 90mm lenses.

I'm not overly concerned at the moment as having just bought the camera I still only have the 45mm that came with it. However, I've always been a big fan of 35mm lenses for my street work and may well be tempted to go down that road sometime soon. Can anyone tell me what I'd need to do to get the 'green label' treatment, costs and where it could be done - I'm UK based but willing to accept sending my little gem over seas if necessary.

Also cost wise, with G1's so reasonable if the cost of upgrade is high, and with me loving the G1, it may prove worthwhile getting another body ( only green label ) and using my current as my second body with a 90mm on the end.

Any thoughts?
