Panasonic Lumix 14 f2.5 I
Small and very light weighing in at a mere 55g it packs a bigger punch than it's reputation. Just my opinion of course. It's actually so small it looks out of place on the bigger MFT bodies. It's a 28mm equivalent on FF so it might not suit everybody.
However, mount it on one of the smaller bodies like a GM1 or GM5 and you have a perfect carry everywhere camera system.

The boat was a 54 footer with 3 ...

Short Post about my Panasonic GM5 Love Affair.
I believe I've mentioned that the Panasonic GM5 really got my attention after I took it with me to the south of France last year (as an afterthought). The camera and the lenses made for it are so small and light you really don't realise that you're carrying them around with you.
I normally use the two lenses made for it; the 12-32 f3.5-5.6 OIS and the 35-100 f4.0-5.6 OIS. These two lenses were especially ...
