I recently sold my OMD EM-5 with the kit lens 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 II R , I also own the 45mm f1.8 and the 25mm f1.8 and a 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6 R Lens.

You still have your 25mm, 45mm and 40-150mm.  Yes?

I purchased the OMD EM-1 and I am looking to add a lens to my collection.

I am in between 2 lenses, the 12-40mm f2.8 pro or the 40-150mm f2.8 pro.

If your new purchase was a E-M5ii or E-M10ii, I'd have suggest wide prime's but with a E-M1, a 12-40mmf2.8 is ergonomically better plus you need that (since you sold your 14-42mm) more than the 40-150mm PRO.

I have an E-M10(and GM1), so the trinity PRO lenses don't talk to me as much as my prime's.
