Hi Gary,

    I predict the OM will win the shoot out with the Canon 50 macro, because
the Canon does not use a floating element construction! As such, the OM make a
far better general lens than any non floating design--including the German 60
macros. They might match or even beat the OM macro at a 1:10 or 1:5 distance,
but the OM would take them everywhere else--including 1:2.

Alex
