Conclusion: The Kit lens is great but it is minor brand so not many available lens on the market. I just stick to the kit lens since it is awesome. Any Olympus lens can be used.
Pros: Great lens. It seems the lens itself costs more than $700. great user control. easy to manipulate shutter speed and aperture.

Summary: This camera will apeal to the over 40´s amateur who has been slow to adapt to dslr´s, and feels that the position of the shutter and aperture controls were set in stone
