Note you can get the 12-60mm f/3.5-5.6 for drastically less than the others if you buy a de-kitted one (~$250). What this lens would give you is a little bit wider view and a bit more reach.

Given I already had the 12-32mm, that lens would have been a bit redundant. I got the 14-140mm II for my GX85 and it's a perfect match. Hardly bigger or heavier than the 45-150mm (which I might have got instead) and very convenient for travel. The IQ is excellent for a superzoom.
