How does this compare to the Panasonic 7-14 M4/3 lens?

I've got the Panasonic 7-14mm and have used this lens on the same camera (GX85), the Olympus lets in more light f2.8 vs f4 (which f4 is still a VERY fast lens) and does not exhibit the very-noticeable purple light glare artifacts like the Panasonic does. The Panasonic is smaller, MUCH lighter and easier to travel with, it also costs MUCH less. If weight and money are not significant, buy the Olympus; I prefer the Panasonic. People say matching the brand of lens to the camera results in better focusing results - I have not noticed any difference using the Olympus lens on my Panasonic camera though.

Somebody knows the UV and polarizer filters diameter?

This lens is not designed to accept filters of any sort. Also, you shouldn't use a polarizer on a wide angle lens such as this.

Without a thread to attach an nd or cp filter, is there any other solution, such as a filter "cap?"

There are a few people making adapters for the Nisi or Lee filter system. Try google.
