Not yet. So far, I've been tickled with all of the Oly stuff I've managed to
lay my greedy.... uhhh.... I meant NEEDY... hands on. <G>

Well, since I got the 24/2.8 my 28/2.8 hasn't seen much daylight.
Same thing goes for the 50/1.8 once I got the 50/1.4 lens.
But I suppose the "real" candidate for that one is the 1-1 screen I had to
buy in an emergency. While on holiday (on Vancouver Island) I tried
"cleaning" my 1-13 original and instead managed to wreck it, instead.
After running around all over Victoria, B.C., the only screen I could
locate was the 1-1 so I bought it. Once I got back home, I searched
until I found the 1-14. That's what's in the OM-2 now, and I don't have
plans for 'nuther one I like it so much!
That said, there's really nothing wrong with the 1-1 screen. I'm just
used to focusing with a split image. The 1-14 is *really* cool, as I no
longer have to hunt for a horizontal or vertical surface to focus on.
That's MUCH better than EITHER the 1-13 or the 1-1, IMHO.
