Before I bought the lens, I had read many negative comments, pointing to the slow f/6.3 at the tele end. Yes, it's slow. But that's just one aspect of the lens.

Compared to other kit lens, you get a wider 24mm equivalent, weather-sealed body and the macro mode.

This lens reminds me of those lens you find on compact cameras. Wide and with macro. Now, it's available on the Micro Four Thirds, well, in a much larger body.

It's smaller than I expected. Its height is close to the zoomed out standard kit lens. This lens is fixed in size because the zooming is internal.

It's made of mainly hard plastic and weighs 212g. It's light. The standard kit from Olympus weighs 113g and Panasonic 165g.

It's great there are two colours for this lens. I bought the black one to go with my black camera. It looks good together. I think contrasting colours of the lens and camera will draw unwanted attention.

4.0 out of 5 stars Smooth Lens, February 18, 2012
This review is from: Olympus M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12-50mm F3.5-6.3 EZ Lens V314040BU000 (Electronics)
Recently purchased this lens for my EPL3. I really like the smoothness of the zoom control, perfect for when I'm shooting video. I felt the lens were a little too long but for the quality and control you get I can get pass that part. It's definitely an upgrade from the 14-42 that came with my epl3. Maybe a tough choice between the pz 14-42 lens and this lens, but ultimately i felt more confident in this zoom control and the bit of a wider angle.
