Requesting Lens Size Comparison Pic: Oly 25mm f1.8, Pany 20mm & 25mm f1.7

Hey guys, like the title says, would anybody be able to post a size comparison pic of the Olympus 25mm f1.8, Panasonic 20mm f1.7, and Panasonic 25mm f1.7? If anyone can take a pic of all 3 lenses that would be perfect, but if not, comparisons among 2 of the 3 would be good too! I've seen and briefly tried the Oly 25mm and Pany 20mm in person, but months apart, and am trying to judge the sizes of all 3 comparatively so as to make the smallest sized, effectively priced travel kit.

I really liked the 20mm and the oly 25mm when I tried them in store... I figure I'd like the 25mm pany just as much, but I just picked up a very small and compact camera bag that I really like and am trying to develop as small a kit as possible. I currently fit my EM10 body, 40-150, and kit 14-42 in it with no issues: I'll probably keep the kit zoom around for wide angle (other wide angle primes seem pretty expensive), pick up one of these 3 for normal-ish, and then maybe pick up an oly 45mm, sigma 30mm, or sigma 60mm.... tried the sigma 30mm and it was QUITE sharp.

Now that I think of it, possible travel kits could be as follows:

20mm/f1.7, 45mm/f1.8 or 30mm/f2.8, 40-150mm

kit zoom, 25mm/f1.8 or 25mm/f1.7, 40-150mm

But anyway, I'm more just typing my thoughts out now, anybody have size comparison pics?

As has alreday been suggested, camersize.com is a great resource for this. Following is a link for just such a comparison:

or if you would rather have the full link:

http://camerasize.com/compact/#521.458,521.459,521.411,521.30,521.92,521.95,ha,t

Note that they don't have the Panasonic 25mm 1.7 in their list, but it is almost identical in size to the Olympus 14-42 II R.

You can also do a comparison of dimensions on here too, see:

and scroll down to the "Physical" section.
