No matter which lens you decide to buy you should really consider going the used route and research B&H, Adorama and KEH who are known to be extremely reputable and all off a 30 day return policy and a warranty. B&H is 90 days and Adorama and KEH give you a 120 days warranty. You will save a great deal of money and still get a quality lens. They all rate the condition of their used equipment and look for ones that are almost new condition.
As your GM-1 body lacks IBIS look for a Panasonic lens with stabilization. @:-)
Also if you purchased the Olympus 40-150mm recently with a US warranty I would definitely put in a claim and ask for a repair or replacement.
