Best budget lens for the panasonic lumix gm5?

For a budget pick on the GM5, I'd start with the Panasonic Lumix G 25mm f/1.7. It frames like a 50mm on full frame, which is the fast prime I recommend for people and low light in Your first camera. The cheaper Yongnuo YN25mm f/1.7M is another one to compare.

If you want one lens for everything, the Panasonic Lumix G 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 II is the simple, modest choice. It frames like 28-84mm on full frame.

I don't have prices on these pages, so check the lens pages for current costs. Whatever you buy, budget for a spare battery too, since mirrorless cameras eat them.
