The 25mm is waiting in my cart, case closed. The 40-150 might be the next one after that, just to cover the general range. I was looking at a boatload of reviews saying get 42.5 or 45 for portraiture photography(one person even downplayed the 25 completely for portraits.) Moral of the story is there is such a thing as too much research.

If you have a Panasonic camera body that supports dual IS, then 42.5/1.7 w/ OIS makes a lot more sense.  Or if you have a m43 body with no IBIS, 42.5/1.7 makes more sense.

I bought my 45 before the 42.5 was released.
