I notices this glaring omission too. Nice complements, but no picture. I
guess that anyone who wants one knows what it looks like. There's not much
demand for high-aperture zooms for OM bodies these days.
I just think that they ran of room for pictures and started at the bottom
of the demand pile and pushed lenses off that few people would crow about.
Oh, well. <sigh>

Catching up on my reading....The September/October issue of Photo
Techniques has
an article titled "Guide to Fixed Aperture f/2.8 Zoom lenses" The editor
really
gives the zuiko 35-80 f/2.8 an outstanding review. Short but impressive. The
only thing the article lacked was an image of the lens. All the other lenses
mentioned had their picture in the article, but not the zuiko! Shameful
travesty? or are they that hard to come by? or is Olympus being tight-fisted?
I am asking for a volunteer who owns one, to take their zuiko
35-80 f/2.8 to
Photo Techniques and show them what it looks like. Maybe even allow them to
photograph it for a future issue. If your personal time is too valuable,
please
send me the lens and I'll hand deliver it to the editors at Photo
Techniques and
have it back to you in practically no time at all. Geologically speaking ;-).
