Zuiko 50/3.5 is a very good lens, but there are lots available on the
market, this one is a SC version, I would say $153 is a bit high. Two years
ago, I spent a few months on ebay to get a later version MC with S/N>200,000
(no MC mark). The reasons I need a good MC one was because I had a SC
before, I found it seems quite easy subject to flare at backlight condition
(no ghost image but reduced contrast). Now I have three 50/3.5 with
SN17x,xxx 18x,xxx and 21x,xxx, all MC but they have different color of
reflections on the front element, with the latest one have more green
reflections.
