I hate to chime in, but there is NO WAY that any Olympus OM-System products
were uncoated. The last time uncoated optics were produced in volume for
the consumer market was around and just after WWII.
Perhaps it's not MUTI-coated. Remember that most of the early OM lenses
wern't MC'd.

I have a very new Olympus Skylight (1A) filter sitting here, in the box.
Just checked it and as far as I can tell, it appears to be totally UNcoated.

Andrew,
The aperture ring is such that with a standard filter, the threads will bind
it to the body when tightened, preventing it from being moved. I finally
have an Original Olympus UV filter that has shallower threads that does the
trick. I only wish it was multi-coated.
Anyone know if Olympus coated any of their 49mm filters?
