A while back one member created a list of m43 lenses and grouped them by filter size. It pertains only to Olympus lenses but it sets up a good approach for organizing the info.

Thanks for the link. I added the panasonic and sigma lenses to the list in that old thread. (And I was wrong that 62mm was used by Oly only, Panny had one lens with that 14-140, which has been replaced by the faster version II.)

In summary, the number of lenses with each size falls out as (including oly, panny, sigma, tamron):

No thread: 7 lenses
37mm: 7
46mm: 19
52mm: 7
58mm: 7
62mm: 2
67mm: 2
72mm: 1

Things are pretty good until we get to the larger threads (and mostly higher end lenses).
