Re: too bad Panasonic only give up 14-42 (V1) not (V2) for USA

I love the new smaller Panasonic 14-42 (II) with silent AF.  But I'm also quite annoy that Panasonic decide to bundle G6 with older 14-42 (I) in USA instead of the newer 14-42 (II).

They actually did that initially in Europe, not the U.S., if you bought a kit stateside with the older lens you either got a grey market import or... I dunno. I bought both a G6 (gift) and a GF6 and both were sold with the II, which was the only option listed anywhere. I really ought to sell mine even if I only get some $75 for it, haven't used it at all since I got the 12-32 a month later.
