| Tough call.  In the big scheme of things bringing both is not that hard 
compared to FF lenses.  I would bet someone has tested the 12-60 on Oly bodies 
for the UV issue. Perhaps MFT forum on FM if none hear has tested that. 
I think you tested CU diopters on the 12-100 at 100mm but don't recall the 
results. Synch IS and handling on the E-M1 mk11 was excellent. The PL is tack 
sharp even into the corners wide open at 12mm but is only F2.8 at 12mm as you 
know.  One can see a tad of onion skinning in the bokeh, but that is getting 
picky.  The PL 12-60 I think has 9 aperture blades and the Oly 12-100  7--the 
latter doesn't do sunstars well and usually need at least F16.  I don't know 
about the PL but someone does. Ironically older lenses with straight aperture 
blades tend to have nicer sunstars but I think that adversely affects the 
bokeh.  
No free lunch, Mike
