Cons: Not so durable build quality, but better than EF-S 18-55. AF is a little bit slow and very noisy.
Pros: Sharp and very good colors.
Summary: A good kit lens for FourThirds, but Zuiko optics are better. Not so bad at all.

Cons: - Not terribly sharp. - Slow max. aperture
Pros: - Not really bad unless you abuse it. - Built better than comparable kit lenses.
Summary: A bargain bin kit lens which I found quite usable in daylight. It's in about the same class with the old Canon kit lens, and clearly better than the KM 18-70.
