It's an amazingly contrasty lens producing sharp looking photos. It's part of
my "BIG" kit, Series 1 35-85, 135/2.3, 200/3 and Zuiko 300/4.5. All take 72 mm
filters. All focus to 1:4 or 1:5 except for the Zuiko. It beats all Zuiko
35-85 zooms(tricky answer). I haven't compared it with the Zuiko 35-70/3.6,
35-70/3.5-4.5 or Tamron 35-105/2.8 but I should. Suffice it to say that I
have never been dissatisfied with the sharpness of any of these lens.
