<p>Thank you so much for the insight about the lack of weight difference. I was unaware!<br>

May I re-phrase, and ask, if I was to buy a new lens for 'better' quality images in a range of situations, what would be the suggestion? (Regardless of weight, however priced < $500). <br>

I was considering buying a new compact camera, but I think the EPL-2 is still an alright camera.... No?</p>

<p>Hi there,<br>

I am looking for advice about which lens I should buy and take on my trip around Europe mid-2015. I am not a photographer, but do like to have decent photos for albums. I currently have an Olympus PEN EPL-2 with the standard 14-42mm lens. I took the camera with this lens to a recent trip through Thailand and it was a little heavy for my liking and I also never used the zoom (hardly). I am looking to get a new lens that is lighter and smaller, suitable for standard travel photography, ie. architecture, landscapes, street and portraits. Really, an all-rounder. <br>

I am thinking one of the following lenses:<br>

Panasonic Lumix 14mm f/2.5<br />Panasonic Lumix 20mm f/1.7<br />Olympus 25mm f/1.8<br>

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about what would be the best all-round lens? Or any others that are small/slim/light. <br>

Thanks in advance!</p>
