Re: Error in Olympus E-520 and E-420 Review (AP 5 July 2008)

Quote:

Actually it's a new redesigned lens. Not the old 'average' 18-55mm

And the only place I can find reviews of both lenses (DPReview) rates the 18-55 IS as exactly the same for quality as the 14-42 (7.5).

Here are the two ratings:

Detail Rating (out of 10)
Build quality 6.5
Ergonomics & handling 7.5
Features 6.5
Image quality 7.5
Value 8

and

Detail Rating (out of 10)
Build quality 6
Ergonomics & handling 6.5
Features 7
Image quality 7.5
Value 9

So there's not a lot to choose between them.
