As kit lenses go, it IS impressive.

Which 14-42 are you referring to? There are quite a few of them.....

The 14-45 Panasonic is still considered a very sharp lens in the Kit lens group. I got mine with the G1 and although I use it infrequently, I continue to keep it just because it is so good. Oh, I have kept the G1 body too...in excellent condition. My reasoning is that it was the beginning of a whole new photographic experience and worth the storage room.

Dear Dan, I've no problem with it. perhaps a problem with AF-motor or a monday production?

dear Alan,

the ealdest, not the newest one. it might be better, but the 14-45 is really better than the 14-42 lenses.Try it...
