Hello everyone,
So the new 35-70/f3.5-4.8 zoom is not a Zuiko.
But how bad (or good) is it, really?
Sadly, it seems that no in depth testing of the new 35-70/f3.5-4.8 zoom
(sold with the OM2000) is available.
I looked a little deeper into the "cloning" origins of the OM2000
and its two new zooms. Some might be surprised to see that the
OM2000 is one out of a family of seven (!) clones.
I have summerized this (with pictures) on the web page
http://www.neci.nj.nec.com/homepages/sebastien/album/clone2000.html
Since many of these clones share the same 2 zoom lenses, there must be
a test somewhere...
