I didn't say whether the query would return any such images. :-)

That's the lens that comes with the war-surplus helium barrage balloon
as the first example of image stablization, long before C*n*n or N*k*n
thought of it. Another Zuiko first.

p.s. To get back onto the off topic thread, I wish minilabs wouldn't
cut negs into 4. I cut strips of 5 when I develop my own, which fits
a roll of 36 on one page. To fit strips of 4 on one page, I have to
use the sleeves which fit two strips of 4 negs sideways down the page,
which gives me whiplash when I flip through my files, turning head to
suit each page. Gotta go, the new kitten is lonely again.
