Thanks for all of the advice. Seems like for the most part I'm not the only person who's been disappointed by the 12-50. Maybe it's user error, maybe it's a bad copy, either way it's not as fun for me as the 12 and 25. Looks like I'll be adding the 45 to my collection soon. The great part about micro 4/3 is I can walk around with one lens on the camera and the other two primes in my pockets.

That's exactly what I do - the 12 is on a lot of the time, but the 25 and 45 cover most of my other options, and I'd rather have the optical performance that they deliver than the ability to not have to swap lenses.

The only others that I regularly carry are two legacy lenses - a Tamron 90 SP macro, and a 135 2.8 nikkor - both superb pieces of glass in their own right, and providing capability in closeup and reasonably long tele respectively.
