GH1 + Oly ZD 12-60 - good combo?

I plan to get a GH1 very soon - mostly for video shooting, and I am planning to purchase a Zuiko ZD 12-60 lens as well to use on it, mostly for the wide angle that lens gives me (24mm in 35mm equiv).

I am wondering if anyone has used the GH1 with this lens before? If so, how is the performance/sharpness/handling, etc? If this lens is NOT a good idea, can anyone suggest an alternative?

My main application will be shooting corporate videos - factories, warehouses, etc. I need the lens to be reasonable fast, and I need a sharp wide angle.

Why this lens? Because I already have an Olympus 4/3 system as well as older OM lenses. It will be really great to be able to share lenses.
 
That will probably be a great lens, but the auto focus will most likely not work.

I have the Olympus 8mm fisheye lens and it works really well, except the lack of auto focus.
