The 35-70/4 is my favorite in this range. Strange, but it hasn't been
mentioned here yet unless I just happened to miss it.

I used it for my 4 Odyssey photos.

My favorite is #2 but the prettiest is #4. Ultra-color 100 does a nice
job on sky and water.
The Zuiko 35-70/4 paired with a Kiron 70-150/4 makes an excellent light
weight kit with most of the range you need. I sometimes add the 24/2.8
and probably should add the Kiron 1.5x matched multiplier. Would you
believe I've never even used that TC?
