That's a pretty big budget. I would definitely get the Panasonic 20mm to start with.

yes those 2 and the 45-200 is very inexpensive and a useful zoom that is optically good its less than 300 dollars
 its not tiny but considering its 400 equiv at the long end its not too big either

I want it!!!
If a had 2000 dolars (I already own the 14-140mm) Id buy the 7-14 and the upcoming 100-300. I could cover any range from 14-600mm!! with just 3 lenses!!
If it comes down to just one lens consider this: unless you own a full framer, there's no lens that will go as wide as 14mm in aps c (non fisheye).
I love m4/3...
More megapixels don't necessarily mean more resolution...
