I saw this pop up, these are Canadian dollars. I have the GF1, the gx7 looks to be a good upgrade to it but I already have the 14-42 lens in my collection... any idea what I could sell this kit lens for? I think I'd have to ebay the lens because I'm not sure my community of 300k people has a lot of m43 users but who knows.

Check Ebay SOLD listings.

In the US, it seems to average between $75-95.

It's a terrible lens, though. By far the worst normal zoom that Panasonic has produced for M43. The MK II version is supposed to be better, but that's not what's on that camera.

The 14-42mm f3.5-5.6 Mark II IS / WAS the kit lens for the GX7. You could also opt for the 20mm f1.7 Mark II.

If the OP has the original, 14-42mm he should definitely swap.

I bought a 14-42mm mark II and sold it.
