If you can afford it the panasonic 15mm 1.7 would be a better choice than the 14mm, although its not as tiny its still compact.

That said I managed to grab a 2nd hand Ricoh GR which covers my 14/15mm prime and was much cheaper than a new 15mm panny. but its not 1.7 its 2.8 on apsc but was cheaper than i could get a 15mm 1.7 panny...

I have a 25mm oly coming as ive held off getting one for forever as i had the 20mm pancake. I may sell one or keep both dont know yet.

I've done the odd astro shot on the 20mm pancake but the 15mm 1.7 should be better still.

The 45 is great just get it.

17mm too close to 14 and 15, my ricoh also has a crop mode to cover the 17mm.

I want a 75mm but its $$$ and i have that focal length covered with other manual legacy primes but not 1.8...

I also want a 75-300 oly but cant justify the cost for a slow lens and currently have that covered with a 60-300 tokina manual lens that cost me 2.99!!!! fairly good at f8 and a bitch to manual focus even with peaking or IS.

I think I'm going to start with just one or two right now and see how it goes before moving onto the more expensive stuff.  I've had the bad experience before about buying things that were expensive and not using them much and then selling them for 10% cost at B&H used department or astromart or cloudy nights.  Someone mentioned a 12mm Oly prime.  I also want the 45mm so I might just start with those two for now.
