ephotozine‘s review Edit

Overall the this optic perform well for one that is bundled as a kit lens and as it it priced lower than other alternatives when bought separately, it offers good value for money as a result. The build quality is good and focusing fast so it should please most people who receive this with their Micro Four Thirds compatible camera.

While we'll reserve final judgement when know we have a production-level copy of this lens, we can say that if the final version is anything like the one we tested, it'll be a keeper: good sharpness wide open, and excellent stopped down a little. Given that it's the kit lens to a G3 package, you'll probably find yourself with one of these lenses just by buying into the system, and then it'll become a question of whether to stay with the kit lens, or buy something else. While you're deciding, you should be able to make excellent photographs.

photozone‘s review Edit

In terms of sheer optical performance the Panasonic Lumix G Vario 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 ASPH O.I.S. is not a great lens. However, when looking at the auto-corrected results, and this is where it counts from a user perspective, it's capable of producing quite good results. The center resolution is on a very good level straight from the max. aperture setting whereas the border and extreme corners are generally on a good level. At 42mm we've an evenly high quality across the frame. Furthermore, the vignetting is still comparatively pronounced at 14mm @ f/3.5 despite the auto-correction. However, it's not really an issue any more at other settings.
