Regarding the 12-32 lens,, the only "problem" that springs to mind is that,, I use my LX7 as my main camera and with the 24-90 lens it gets 95% of the shots I take,, I'm not sure if the shorter zoom on the 12-32 would start to pee me off with possibly having to change lenses more often ?. Not having had a micro four thirds camera / system before I don't know if this would be the case or not, or if in fact there is a lens that would cover the same range as the 24-90 of the LX7,,,,

Similar situation to me. I moved up from an LX5 to an M4/3 camera last year and went with the GX85.

I had the same concern about focal length with the kit 12-32mm lens so I asked the store to swap it out for the 12-60mm lens which covered the same wide angle and went a bit further on the telephoto end. It's been a good lens for that.

Of course, I've since added more lenses to my bag.
