14-42X lens is buggy - hardware issue, February 17, 2012 By This review is from: Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 14-42mm/F3.5-5.6 Lens for Panasonic Lumix G-Series Digital Cameras (Black) (Electronics) Initial testing was good, but some images appeared very soft when they shouldn't be. After digging through some forums and reading up a lot, I found this lens has a vibration issue that causes a "double image". Some people attributed it to the OIS (stabilization) but that is not the case.
I did some test photos with the shutter speed between 1/60th and 1/200th second. I know this isn't a safe shutter speed for the long end of the telephoto but you can tell the difference between motion blur and the double image problem. Taking 18 photos, at least 10 of them showed the double image. I took another 18 with OIS on and again 10 or so had the double image.
I'm pretty positive that there is something wrong with the stabilization lens, such that it sometimes vibrates even with OIS off. If I held the extended portion of the lens with my fingers, that seemed to decrease/eliminate the issue.
I could not recommend this lens to anyone until Panasonic fixes the... Read more

Could be perfect if it actually delivered..., February 24, 2012 By oluv (Austria, Vienna) - See all my reviews This review is from: Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 14-42mm/F3.5-5.6 Lens for Panasonic Lumix G-Series Digital Cameras (Black) (Electronics) My first compact system camera was a GF1 together with the 14-45 kit lens. Although my first lens showed some decentring to the right side, I exchanged it for another one and was really happy with the results. This lens was very sharp through the whole zoom range, but it was painfully big at the same time. It was hardly smaller than the usual APS-C DSLR kit-lenses from Canon Nikon etc. All the size-advantage of the mirrorless MicroFourThirds System just vanished. Of course i was happy when putting the 20mm pancake on my GF1, but sometimes I wanted just a bit more reach, without the need for superbright lenses, just a nice universal walkaround lens.
Then Olympus came out with their vision of a collapsible kitzoom when introducing the E-P1 together with the M.Zuiko 14-42. I was full of envy to see this nice small lens. Although it received lots of criticism due to wobbly construction and slow autofocus, nevertheless it was aiming in the right direction. Even Samsung "borrowed" the... Read more
16 of 17 people found the following review helpful Blurry at the long end at certain shutter speeds., February 19, 2012 By Fabian Gonzales (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 14-42mm/F3.5-5.6 Lens for Panasonic Lumix G-Series Digital Cameras (Black) (Electronics) This lens produces blurry pictures below 1/400s at the the long end (around 42mm), even with the image stabilizer turned off and the camera placed on a tripod. This has been reported elsewhere (dpreview) as being a problem with this lens. After running a number of tests I was able to reproduce this problem myself with my sample of this lens, which came with firmware v.1.1 installed. It doesn't seem to happen at all subject distances, which made it a bit tricky to pin down.
In addition, there is also a problem with the image stabilizer at all focal lengths, at shutter speeds ranging from 1/60s-1/400s. Pictures taken with the image stabilizer turned on are less sharp than pictures taken with the image stabilizer turned off. Even with the latest firmware this is still a problem.
