Product reviewsOlympus M.Zuiko 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 II R Lens For Four Thirds (Silver)

Infinite possbilities

The lightweight camera is feature packed. You do need to take the time to learn the camera. Pictures are wonderful. Very fast shooting modes are available. Colors come out great in natural mode and of course you can use built in filters. Have not tried the movie yet. Wonderful videos available from Olympus to learn shooting with this camera.Read full review...

Second-time lucky?

My very first m43 camera had the first 14-42mm fold-up zoom on it. As can be seen in many reports this tends to develop a reluctance to focus due to problems with the gears/drive to the AF. This newer version is designed to solve that issue as well as add benefits fom optical design technology in the interim. It is smaller, absolutely silent in operation and slick and smooth to use. The only downside is the move to a polycarbonate mount as opposed ot the original's metal mount but, unless you intend using the camera and lens in unarmed combat, it is durable enough for most uses. A definite improvement over the original and the one to go for if looking for a compact m43 standard zoom.Read full review...

A nice standard lens for a nice price.

I'm using this on an Olympus E PL 7 with the adaptor. Its a manual focus lens so of course auto focus is not a consideration, but with the camera in auto mode the exposure is nice.

Olympus 14-42mm

Small & lightweight! Great for street photography. Day trip to New Orleans. Good for wide angle shots. Still have alittle zoom when needed. Focus not as sharp at the zoom level. Overall, it's a good buy. Recommend for every 4/3 kit.Read full review...

Lightweight, sharp image quality, AF is fast.

Like new, frontal / rear lenses are clean, provided with original caps. Working very well with my Olympus E-PL3 & E-PL7 cameras.

Great all-around family friendly lens for micro 4/3 cameras

This lens is a great all-around lens for group photos and portraits but you may want to use a flash indoors as it is not as fast in low light as some of the Olympus pro lens.
