What lenses should I buy for the om system om 3?

For an everyday kit on the OM-3, I'd start with one standard zoom and add a fast prime.

• Olympus M.Zuiko 12-45mm f/4 PRO: about 24-90mm on full frame, a sensible range for most days out.
• Panasonic Leica DG 25mm f/1.4 II: about 50mm equivalent, good for street and low light.
• Olympus M.Zuiko 45mm f/1.8: about 90mm equivalent, a small, inexpensive portrait lens.

If you want a bigger, faster zoom for the same job, look at the OM System M.Zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8 PRO II. It costs more and weighs more. Not sure what the numbers mean? The focal length converter will translate any lens for you.
