I've been thinking about aquiring a brand new or a 9 or better Zuiko
100mm/f2.8, a Tamron
90/2.8, a Tamron 90/2.5, a 100mm/2.5 Vivitar Series 1 (if still available) or
90mm Tokina
2.5 macro (also if availble). I've looked at Gary's tests and am still not
sure what would
be the most bang for the buck. It's primary purpose will be for outdoor
portraits. However
I may be using it in the studio also. Does anyone have any advice? I know
this focal
length has been discussed to some degree but even though I read those posts I
still have no
clue as what others think on this field of comparison. I was offered a
supposedly 9 Tamron
90/2.5 for $150.00. I would still need to get a adapter for the OM mount. On
the high end
new side I would consider a new Zuiko 100/2.8 ($299.00) or the new Tamron
90/2.8 ($359.00).
That's the absolute max I would consider spending. So any comments will be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Phillip Franklin
