If you want to replace the 45-200, I suggest the 45-175, much smaller, nano tech, power zoom which on a Panasonic body can be controlled via iPhone. Fun lens. A bit sharper and larger than the 45-150 (which loses 25% of the zoom you are used to). The 35-100 does not have comparable reach, but it's a good portrait/event lens. Not enough reach for real telephoto work.

Thank you for your kind advice. I'm still considering and might make my call before my next trip in early June. 45-175 is high on my list.
