Olympus Digital 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 ED Lens Review at PhotoReview: “8.5″

The Olympus Digital 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 ED Lens offers relatively good performance for an affordable lens, and typically is offered as a kit option with Olympus DSLR offerings. In a review at PhotoReview, the Olympus 14-42 f/3.5-5.6 walked away with a score of 8.5:

Olympus claims this lens offers ‘class-leading’ performance in its price range at maximum apertures so we were interested to see how it shaped up in Photo Review’s Imatest tests. Imatest showed that at the 14mm focal length and f/3.5 aperture it was capable of matching the resolution of the E-620’s sensor. Resolution at the maximum apertures at the other focal lengths was only a little lower.
