Wow the great responses continue.

So there are a bunch of great deals on Panasonic items.

Best Buy GX85 and 12-32 $697 + free travel charger and extra battery

adorama 12-35 f2.8 for $699 plus $100 gift card

adorama 14-140 for $599 plus $100 gift card

I usually only buy used but at these rebates and bonuses they are almost identically priced as used.

I might just get the body/kit and either of the lenses and keep the kit as a vernal everyday keep in car pancake kit lens

cheers

I picked up the 12-35 myself from Adorama on the same special a few months ago,  Used the $100 to buy a nice B+W low profile UV filter for it and a few other odds and ends I'd been meaning to get. Or, you could use it to buy the Oly 40-150mm f4-5.6 when it goes on sale....save yourself some money instead of getting the 14-140mm.  (I've had the last generation of 14-140mm, and was always surprised at how good it was for a superzoom, but neither it nor the current gen one are in the same league as the 12-35mm, which I why I suggest the 12-35mm and the Oly 40-150mm f4-5.6 instead)

BTW, one of my most favorite photos ever was taken with the 40-150mm....
