Late in November I'll be taking a trip to several European locations. I will need to pack fairly light. By then I'll have acquired a Micro 4/3 camera. Applications will include the typical tourist photography of scenery, architecture, wife and friends. Far below pro-level in skill...

If you had only one lens for such a trip, what would it be? I'm willing to invest in high quality glass.

The 14-42mm IIR kit lens weighs only 3.95 ounces. A no-brainer.

If you need a second lens with a wider aperture, the 20mm f/1.7 weighs 3.53 oz and the 17mm f/1.8 weighs 4.2 oz. One of those two would not weigh you down.
