I figured this would be a good place to say I downloaded Panasonic Camera and Panasonic Lens listing from dpreview.com as pdfs. You can do that too, for the pages you are interested in … for the next two weeks or so.
My kit is far less impressive.

I would prefer to use prime lenses but when out on the moors and the wind blows and it rains and my hands are cold changing lenses is a faff.

One of the things that attracted me to m4/3 is that even the low-cost zooms seem to be pretty good (at least).
Never listed gear on DPR but what the heck…
Panasonic GX9, G100, GM5 bodies
Panasonic 12-32/3.5-5.6
Panasonic 35-100/4-5.6
Panasonic 12-60/3.5-5.6

Don’t like the Panasonic lenses much but the little 12-32/35-100 pair make for a tiny kit with the GM5 so earn their keep. I thought the 12-60 might be ok on the G100 (which lacks IBIS) and it is, but the images are a bit dull and flat for my taste so it doesn’t get much use. I may get rid of it.
The Olympus 12-45 is my newest acquisition, first day out today. Loving it - it’s a great match for the GX9 for use in good light when I’m too lazy to carry (and swap) primes - and with no real loss of quality
I, too, have the E-M5 II, and two weeks ago I was also on the moors, at freezing temperaturs. I had no gloves and my fingers became just sticks devoid of any feeling. Navigating the camera menu became impossible at some point, so I went home.
That was the first time I wanted a bigger, more ‘pro’ camera. Maybe even a Pentax K-1.
But that feeling passed, as my fingers warmed up and I could once again play around with my precious E-M5 II. It feels so dense and smooth, everything is perfectly placed. This together with the Pany 20/1.7 is all, what it comes down to. Everything else is, yes, also nice, but not worth mentioning here.
This combo wants me to get out there:
Bodies:
G9, GX9, GM5
Zooms:
P 7-14 4.0; O 12-40 2.8; P 35-100 2.8; P 100-300 4.0-5.6

Some “kit” lenses that will be going away.
Want an Oly 12-100 - looking at the OM-5 and some of the Laowa lenses look pretty interesting.
Still have some of my old Canon kit, but will probably trade-in for one or more of my “wants”.
I got fed up years ago with changing lenses on a cold, wet, windy day on Winter Hill. I changed to zooms but still have to swap from 12-40 to longer lenses when out and about. I prefer to to use small primes on M4/3 for weight, balance and wide maximum aperture but have not yet reverted to primes ( except a macro and 60mm lens ). I should, by now, realise that as a very amateur photographer it really does not matter if I loose a shot by not changing lenses in bad weather in exposed locations.
Your mention of Winter Hill reminds me I should get over that way more often. I don’t know why but I seem to neglect some really nice areas that are quite close (I’m in Rossendale) but tend to drift east/north rather than west/south on my outings.
I also tend to go North and East ( Bowland Fells, West Pennine Moors and North Yorkshire) but also West to the coast - from Chorley
Bodies:
- 2x OM-1
- GX7
Lenses:
- Panaleica 100-400
- Oly 100-400 w/ 1.4x TC
- Panaleica 12-60
- Panasonic 45 f1.7
- Panasonic 25 f1.7
- (still have the old 14-42 kit lens)
Wish I could afford the 150-400 Pro of course. Otherwise very happy with what I have. I might one day get a used OMDS 8-25mm.
EDIT: completely forgot the Panasonic 35-100 f2.8! Fantastic lens.
GX9 (love the size, handling and jpeg output, even if I usually work with raw, the colors of the jpgs are great)
14-140/3.5-5.6
20/1.7
42.5/1.7
Some tubes for macro
F-mount to M43 converter and a few older manual Canon F mounts that I hardly use (don’t particularly like manual focus)
On the wish list
15/1.7
12-35ii or 12-45/4 … wider than the 14-140, but a bit unsure how much benefit I have from them -love the 14-140
100-300ii
Just acquired:
Panasonic Lumix G 42.5mm F1.7 ASPH Power OIS and JJC Micro 4/3 Auto Focus Macro Extension Tube Set.
I gotta get rid of some of this stuff…

Impressively minimalist. I wish I could be like you…
At some point, I plan to get a Leica DG Summilux 15mm f1.7 ASPH to give me a wide angle to round out my range, and that will be it.
Wow !
Seems like you have a roomful.
I have serious envy.
