Review (Summary): "When Panasonic announced its debut digital SLR, the Lumix L1, back in February 2006, it's fair to say a great deal of attention was focused on its kit lens – after all this was no ordinary bundled optic. The D Vario Elmarit 14-50mm was not only Leica's first lens designed specifically for a digital SLR, but by sporting optical stabilization, also became the first Four Thirds lens to actively combat camera-shake. ...
... That's not to say the Leica D 14-50mm isn't recommended overall though. It's a quality lens and an ideal partner for the Panasonic L1 and Leica Digilux 3 bodies, where its full features are supported and its physical characteristics perfectly matched. ..."
