I have mostly used smaller primes in the past years. Planning for a big trip later this year, where lens changes will be too much of a hassle, I sourced a zoom solution to go with that and ordered an EM1, 12-40 and 40-150. The former parts arrived, so today I went around with a standard zoom for the first time in what seems like ages. I missed the feel of my relatively small EM5 and 17 that I normally take on walks like this, but the EM1 and 12-40 were more fun to use than I would have thought.

The 45 1.8 indeed is one of my favorites. My regular bag exists of an EM5, the O12, O17, PL25 and O45. The O75 is on order. I love the feel of those smaller primes on the smaller EM5 bodies much more than such a larger EM1 / 12-40 / 40-150 set. But there is a time and place for great zooms as well. I just need to relearn them.
