The 14-42 v.II that comes with a camera body as a kit lens does have a plastic mount, while the version that sells separately and the 14-45 both have metal mounts. And the 14-45 has the switch on the lens barrel for OIS.

That seems like really weird logic. Surely the cost of an additional production run would exceed the savings of using a plastic mount.
