The camera description says it comes with the 12-50mm lens. Further down in the ad under "what's in the box" it doesn't list the lens. Explain?

If you buy the kit for $1,149.00, the lens will be included. "What's in the box" might be because it's a description of the body only and up. Maybe. Anyway, the lens will be there if you buy the $1,149.00 kit. It is a handy lens that matches the E-M5 nicely. Nothing beats primes, but the 12-50mm is very handy for the less serious daily walk-around use. I am very happy with mine, and am very pleased with the 12-50mm over the 14-42mm option. I've had both. Good luck!

I think the camera is a new one. Because I checked the amout of the shutter used. The camera and the lenses are in the original box. Camera is good undoubtedly. The lenses are good, too. The 50mm lens is a good and lowest price for a newcomer. The 18~105mm lens is the most usual lens. The 55-200mm lens is used when I want to take a photo for a long distance thing, but not frequently. But, I want to ask if you are a newcomer of photographer. If you are not, this bundle is not good for you. The accessories look like very plentiful, but not professional. They are unuseful except the two UV filter. But if you are a newcomer, you can just looks the accessories as gifts, and you can try to use them, and then, you know what excatly you should buy. If you have used SLR before and know how to choose a lens, I suggest you to buy a camera body only, and choose lenses by yourself. These are some offers from Amazon if you buy lenses with a camera. Any questions you can ask me, if you don't mind my broken english.

Yes, it includes the lens and it is a very good lens. Body and lens are all one. I've had this camera for about four months now and I love it! I've had earlier Lumix models and they were all great, too.

It says that the box has the "camera body" and that you have to purchase the stock zoom lens. If I don't buy additional lens, what lens exactly comes with the camera body?

The lens you have is a zoom lens. This is a prime lens. Meaning you can't zoom with this but on the other hand 50mm is good in low light situation. Its Shallow depth of field will make picture look good.

Depending on who fullfills the order things may vary. mine came with camera body, 18-55 mm DAL lens which is the cheapest and not weather sealed. The camera and lens is warranty card that you register on line. Also provided is a manual, battery, battery charger and usb cable. hope this helps

Yes, the lens is included in this kit. You get the Canon brand EF 50mm f/1.8mm along with the little goodies.

It did come with a lens. At least the one I ordered. I can't remember which lens. I gave it as a gift a year ago and recall. Sorry for not having all the information....

You need to check this. The camera I ordered, from Electronics Basket, did NOT come with the lens even though the description on Amazon.com says it comes with the lens. I contacted the seller and they told me they sold me the camera body only, no lens; when I pointed out that the Amazon description states it comes with a lens, I got nowhere.

This is a system camera that shares the lensmount with Panasonic. There are great zoom lenses and prime lenses available. You can save a lot if you know what you want at purchase time. Olympus may offer rebates on lenses. These may vary depending on the country you live in. The 12-50 is weather sealed. Most other lenses are not. This lens has some macro ability and reputedly is a good video lens.

Like the rest of the comments, you are right, it will become a 48mm lens, pretty close to what you see is what you get through the viewer. I did notice the lens it has a unique sound when it is focusing. it is pretty cool. I been using this lens for a while now, and it took me a little to get use to it. (I normally shoot with a 18- 200 zoom) so moving forward and backward to get the shot took some getting use to.

I personally got the version that came with the 12-50, and it's a great little lens. Can take it out in the rain, does decent macro without having to buy a separate lens, and takes good video.

When I purchased this I read in all the reviews the body is WR but the lens is not. I don't understand why they sell the lens with the camera when it is not WR. But it was not a issue for me personally .

Mine came with a lens in the box. It works fine but gives a smaller picture than I would prefer. A word of caution though, these projectors are available from several different resellers so read the description since they may not all come with lenses.

It IS an autofocus lens. I suppose some vendors just don't include that in the description. Hope that answers your question.

Chris, sorry, I can't answer that question. I did not get the package deal based on the poor ratings on the lens that comes with the camera. So, I bought the lens separate. It's a Sony 18250 and it's worth every penny of the $648. I've had the camera for about 10 months and love it.

If bought 'new' it should come with the Body and two lenses, a 14-42mm and a 40-150mm (both with front and rear lens caps). BTW, the Amazon ad said it included just the 14-42mm, so the other lens was a bonus. Also, a 1GB micro SD card, one battery, a charger with a USA power plug, a LH-61C lens hood, multi language instruction manual, software CD, DSLR tutorial DVD, shoulder strap, and USB connector. That is all I can remember, but there may have been a few other bits and pieces in the box.
