I know this must have been asked/discussed in the past, but I only just rec'd my GX7 a few weeks ago and now I am paying more particular attention to the m4/3 topics than before.

How can I identify the external (cosmetic) differences between the various 14-42 lenses? Do you have pix that show the differences/

Regards, Jim

Am I to assume that the Panasonic 14-42 II is superior to the 14-45 in various aspects?

I`ve had three 14-45s and I`d say a defnate yes - I find focus consistency and wide end edge performance better than the 14-45

and the size difference is a massive benefit - a GX7 can fit in a coat pocket with it on , it`s not too bulky on a GM1 etc
