M.Zuiko ED 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 EZ at a Glance

This extremely portable 3X Electronic Zoom pancake-style lens complements the compact design of any PEN or OM-D body. Less than 1 inch thick and packed with sophisticated lens technology, this lens features an MSC focusing mechanism for near silent operation. The Electronic Retraction feature automatically extends and retracts the lens when the camera is powered on or off. And the two-step variable Electronic Zoom delivers smooth consistent zooming control that’s especially desirable when shooting HD movies. An auto-opening protective lens cap is optionally available.

    EZ PORTABLE LENS

    The key advantage of the M. Zuiko 14-42mm EZ is its portability. You can capture a broad range of images – from wide-angle landscapes to portraits and architecture – without lugging around multiple lenses – it is an awesome travel lens. And a compact camera like an Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II coupled with the 14-42mm EZ is small enough to fit in your jacket pocket, so you’re always ready for the next photo opp. This is also an especially good lens for video.

    MOVIE & STILL COMPATIBLE MECHANISM

    One of this lens’s most interesting features is the unique-to-Olympus Movie & Still Compatible mechanism, or MSC. This technology provides amazingly fast and nearly silent autofocus operation. You’ll really notice the benefit when you play back your HD video and the only thing you hear is the ambient background noise in the scene you were filming; what you won’t hear is the sound of the lens moving as it focuses.

    GREAT LENS FOR SHOOTING VIDEO

    This is an especially good lens for video. You can track moving subjects with the smooth two speed zoom so there are no abrupt transitions as your distance from the action changes.

An Outstanding Automatic Zoom Lens

Pardon me, but I'm not interested in the lovely technical specifications for this little lens. I care most about how easy to use it is and what it lets me do. It is small, compact, easy to install, and automatic. I have taken some nice pictures with it. That's more than enough to earn my top rating!

Small size large ability

I bought this lens with my M10 mark II, so I could keep the camera in the car, it just adds to the cameras portability, flexibility and is fantastic for street photography

Good walk-around lens.

I purchased this lens for: 1. its small size when closed; important to me when carrying it around on an OM-D EM-1 since I use an OM-D EM-1 Mark II for most of my photography. Relatively unobtrusive - as much as possible on an EM-1. 2. its reasonable zoom properties for most spontaneous photo shooting 3. Olympus quality 4. Sale price made it more attractive Took a little adjustment to the electronic zoom, but my wife and I now are fine with it.
