Panasonic Lumix G Vario 14-45mm f/3.5-5.6 Zoom Lens

This 14-45mm lens from Panasonic covers an angle of view equivalent to a 28-90mm lens on a 35mm camera. Focusing is performed internally, it comes equipped with an Optical Image Stabilisation system and it costs around £230. Panasonic's 14-42mm kit lens that is now the standard lens to come bundled with their cameras is similarly specified, except it covers a range equivalent to a 28-84mm lens on a 35mm camera and has a plastic lens mount, unlike the metal one found on the 14-45mm lens.

Olympus also offer two 14-42mm lenses. Both their 14-42mm lenses feature a collapsible design, making them more compact when not in use. The Olympus MkI 14-42mm optic costs around £230 but doesn't focus internally. The newer MkII version focuses internally and also costs around £230.
