Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 14-42MM f/3.5-5.6 2R MSC Zoom Lens (Silver)

The Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 14-42MM f/3.5-5.6 2R MSC Zoom Lens in silver is the latest generation of the Olympus 14-42mm lens, which is packaged as a kit lens with the latest Olympus PEN digital cameras. This 2R or IIR version of the 14-42mm has been updated with a more stylistic design and enhanced features like MSC (move-still-compatible). The MSC mechanism has an enhanced autofocus with ultra-quiet focus that is perfect for when shooting video or trying to be discreet. The quiet focus ensures focus noise is not picked up by the camera's internal microphone, which can lead to some very distracting audio. The 14-42mm 2R is a truly beautiful lens with a refined elegance that perfectly matches the new PEN cameras like the E-P3 and the E-PL3. In addition, and most important, the image quality is at the top of its game.
