This is a true Oly mystery and I am surprised it hasn't been commented on
before.
The 35/2, which is not as wide as the 28/2, has a 55mm thread. The 24/2
has a 55mm thread. The 28/2 is between the two in focal length yet has a
49mm thread.
You would think it should have a 55mm thread also, so why doesn't it?
