Is there any way to get a PEN with this kit lens? Was it ever made available as a kit in the U.S.? I really like how compact it is.

Also look at the Panasonic 12-32 pancake. It is much about the same size as the Oly but starts at 12mm

Here it is on my EPL5

In fact, that's one thing that has me leaning a little toward the Sony NEX line - he newer 16-50 lens is really flat. I'd prefer an Olympus (because of IBIS) if I could get a flatter lens.

Forget about the IBIS on the EPL6. It is not very good. The IBIS on the EPL7 is better.
