is the 28-70mm lense that comes in the kit a zeiss lense?

No it's a Sony lens. It's quite good but not as much as the Zeiss. The big differences in lenses is that the Zeiss will shoot at f4 all the way, and is of better quality, and a bit more than 2X the price. Your only question then is do you need/want the f4 advantage. I did.

It's not but it's proven perfectly adequate. I shoot primarily video. Check this out: http://dirtwire.tv/2014/07/adams-farm-wednesday-night-mtb-short-track/

The kit came with two off-brand lenses - the 75/300 is cannon and the lens withing the camera box is cannon as well. The other two are off brands.

No. It's just the lens and lens caps standard, but you might find it from third party vendors in a pack with extras like filters.

Hello, other than 4mm in the zoom and the nano coating on the 24-70, nothing. If u wanna get technical they are completely different parts internally but they perform almost identically. I am very familiar with both lenses and they both have their ups and downs however I am seeing a lot of the 24-70's having soft focus issues particularly wide open. This can be repaired and we do have access to fix this problem it is a hassle. The 28-70 does not have this problem. The 28-70's major flaw is the squeaky AF. But this is a easy fix. Personally I would save the money and get the 28-70.

Since the introduction of the E-PL2, the kit 14-42mm lenses are all of the "II" variety. For the OMD, it's the 2.

Yes but I did not get all 3 lenses as described so would be cautious of this seller. Still have not resolved the missing lense

I'm using Zeiss lenses from my Contax 35mm (Contax / Yashica mount: 28 f2.8 Distagon, 50mm f1.4 Planar and 80-200mm f4 Vario Sonnar) on the A7R, and they work very well.

Mine was new in the original box. The kit comes with basically everything you need. The only bad thing about the kit is 2 of lenses are an off brand that did not fit my camera. I would highly recommend this kit.

I talked to Amazon over email and was told they do not know what is coming in the kit.I talked to Olympus over the phone and was told that there will be a 17mm kit with and without the viewfinder so it's possible that the one Amazon is selling does not have it. Of course there wasn't any way for them to tell me which kit Amazon is getting. The price seems like it would include the viewfinder, especially since Amazon usually has competitive pricing. And I really want to use my prime shipping, but I'm not going to preorder without knowing for sure.

Mine came with the 55-300 VR lens, read through the included items list to check.

My lens are VR 28 lens and the lens are coated with iridium. Even tho I bought them through here you can look at also from extreme supply. That's where they came from

I really couldn't tell you. Last one I ordered from Amazon they sent me the wrong lens. I just ordered one thru ebay with no problems!

Short answer is no. It's a standard 28mm lens.22mm-24mm are usually designated wide angle.Usually you have to give up some zoom or other things when you when you get to extremes (wide angle)as no lens (variable zoom) can do everything.

Hmm I don't know. The kit does come with all kinds of lens adapters. I'm using the 58 mm and a friend is loaning me his lens that uses the 77mm lens adaptor and there's an adaptor for it. There are 49mm, 67mm, 62mm, 55mm, and 52.. In addition there are adaptors 77mm 72mm, and 82mm
