Alongside the OM-D E-M10, Olympus has also announced three lenses. First up is the M.Zuiko Digital 25mm F1.8, a relatively inexpensive fast normal prime, that looks specifically designed to complement the much-loved 45mm F1.8. Second is the 9mm F8 Fish-Eye Body Cap Lens (which Olympus technically considers an 'accessory'); this offers a 140° angle of view in a tiny plastic body. Finally there's a new 'pancake' kit zoom for the E-M10, the M.Zuiko Digital 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 EZ, which features an electronic zoom.
Olympus hasn't really said very much about these lenses - just little snippets in the press release for the E-M10 - but here's a quick summary.

Olympus m.Zuiko Digital 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 EZ on OM-D E-M10, powered on with lens extended.
Olympus says: "The super-slim M.ZUIKO DIGITAL 14-42mm 1:3.5-5.6 EZ pancake zoom lens measures just 22.5mm deep, making it the world’s slimmest standard zoom kit lens*. It has a smooth electric zoom that is suitable for shooting movies. It will be available from March, priced £299.99."
*As of January 29, 2014. Shortest distance between the mount and the front end of the lens, when retracted.
The matched LC-37C is billed as a "stylish automatic lens cap for fast shooting and protecting lenses from dust and scratches". It's priced at £39.99, which seems a bit steep for a lens cap (however clever it may be).
