these kit lens are quite capable with good light... just don't like the plastic mounts.

here's some test shots in the backyard at 42mm, f/5.6. Straight out the camera.

Kit lenses are not my favorite, but they are pretty handy, especially outdoors.

Here are some from my kit lens. Some of these are from 3 years ago with the EP1 and 14-42 mki, so they might not be "showing off" the technical capabilities of the new kit lenses, but they're still valid for FOV and DOF questions.

Random shots. Not sure why I shot them all portrait.

I've been happy with the Olympus 14-42mk1. It really saw some heavy use during a trip to CA last year where I was practicing landscape shooting. While I've shared these photos in the Travel forum, here are a couple of my favorites:

See this thread: https://www.mu-43.com/f38/what-will-primes-do-me-26861/
General conclusion is that all of the Oly 14-42 kit lens's (and the Pany 14-45) have excellent image quality - nearly indistinguishable from prime lenses (in good light).
