I'm in USA and over here the panasonic is $180 and the olympus lens is $150-$200 but you can get it for $100 when buying a camera.

It sounds like the 45-150 is better at the long end and is generally slightly better. I wonder how it compares to the 50-200 and 45-175. Any comments ? (the 50-200 can be found for $200 on sale - if you are lucky else closer to $250 - i realize it is a larger lens but mostly concern about the optics) and the 45-175 seems to be the most expensive of the 4 - running around $350. Again I'm mostly concern about the optics at the long end (not so concern about usage with video where I hear the 45-175 is better).
