I just purchased a Vivitar 19/3.8 from the OlympusGuy for $120US. Haven't
done anything with it other than make myself dizzy panning around the room
while looking through the viewfinder. I'll keep you posted.
If you've already got a 28, I'd think twice about a 24. You already know
this, but 4mm ain't that much! I had a 28 and wanted a 24, so I bought
one. Now I never use the 28! If I had it to do over, I'd have purchased
the 19 and the 28.
