I have finally decided to get the M43 body (Panasonic GX8) and chose Panasonic 15mm lens as the first lens (I will be adding Panasonic 25mm lens soon). Now I am trying to find out a couple more lenses for me. Following are the choices and I am trying to get two lenses from this list
1) Panasonic 12-32mm
2) Panasonic 14-140mm
3) Panasonic 42.5mm
4) Panasonic or Olympus 40-150mm
The selection is very hard for the zoom lens. Since I am not going for expensive zooms like Panasonic 12-35mm or Olympus 12-40mm, it is very tough to select a mid-level zoom lens. I might be using this lens for video as well. Originally I was planning on Panasonic 14-140mm, but I heard a lot of complaints that it is jittery and cannot be used for video.
Could someone please provide your recommendations and suggestions?

Well if you don't wanna go for the 12-35 2.8, then the 12-32 is the lens to get.
Very small and very sharp for a "cheap" zoom lens.
Panasonic Lumix DC-G9
Olympus E-M5 III
Olympus 12-40mm F2.8 Pro
Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm F4-5.6 R
Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 45mm F1.8

We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
The Sony ZV-E1 is the company's latest vlogging-focused camera: a full-frame mirrorless camera based the FX3/a7S III sensor, aimed at YouTubers and 'creators' looking to go pro.
