Free lens, was the recent Olympus street lens deal for Olympus PEN purchases made up to end of March 2014. I missed it by 5 days but spoke to Olympus nicely and they agreed to let me have the lens. Doesn't hurt to ask sometimes!

The EPL-5 is best obtained either through some of the crazy prices going at Currys/PC World (£219 for the body I think I saw someone say) but the DZK (14-42mm and 40-150mm) is £399 at Currys - the best deal that I am aware of at present.

They often rely on the website to find stock, and that's not searchable right now (at least not for me!). Doesn't mean you won't have any luck; just depends on the person you get on the other end of the phone.
 
I can't believe Currys could do the single lens E-PL5 for £220!?
No where else has that listed for less than £320.

Anyway, had a play with it on the way home just to test it all out. Thought that some open landscape shots seemed a bit fuzzy, but close ups seems fine so perhaps just haze.
LCD could be an issue in bright light though.
has anyone tried these:
