Hi Steve:
> were the changes cosmetic only (apart from the coating ken referred to?)
One only knows by taking all the evidence into account. The rim, the wording
on the filter rim, the color of the coating and occasionally some obscure item
of the lens construction. Be warned that repaired lenses might have black
filter rims even through the elements might be single-coated. Plus we presume
that during the transition to black rims, MC wording followed by just "Zuiko,"
and multicoating, there were likely all sorts of permutations of parts due to
OLY using up supply on hand.
