My EM10 came with the 14-42 II (and 40-150 II R). I still have the 14-42 but never use it.

My GX85 came with the 12-32 (and 45-150). I've been using the 12-32 quite a bit on my GM1. I highly recommend the 12-32 - for its wider end and its IQ.

I wonder how many people have unused 14-42 lenses sitting around, LOL.

I thought about the 12-32. Is it clearly better IQ than the12-42? Does it have compatibility problems with Olympus cameras?
