You're right John. I keep a silver nose 1.4 for just this very reason! I can
put my later multicoated 1.4 on it, but that just doesn't have the same
aesthetic appeal, so the silver nose lives on the OM-1 and occasionally
gets to take pictures. Its funny too how that older lens doesn't looks
that good to me on any of my other bodies, including a chrome OM2. The
spirit of Maitani is strong here!
