Panny 35~100 f/2.8.  It isn't cheap to be sure, but it is a wonderful optic, it is weather sealed and it is tiny and it focuses in an instant on my EM-1.  I've found it most useful for street photography, as a travel lens and useful in low light.  It's only fault for me is that it doesn't focus very close which would be nice to have for some things.  Otherwise it's excellent.

I have the Oly 40~150 but it's too big to use for much of what I do and so I use the Panny.  When the extra reach is needed then the Oly is fine.
