I have been using a 90mm Series 1 Vivitar macro lens for occasional short
telephoto shots. My only non-Zuiko; decent results off a tripod, but a bit
heavy and fat. Other than that, I don't have anything between 50 and 135.
Now there is an opportunity to buy a used 85/2 Zuiko for US $175. I bought
another lens from this person, and it is perfect, so I imagine his claim of
near-mint for the 85 is accurate. Is this a good current price from a private
party in the U.S.? More importantly, would I be getting any capabilities or
advantages I can't get with the Vivitar?
