Hi, All! According my latest sources on Zuiko lenses, these ones are WITH
floating element design: 18/3,5 21/2,0 24/2,0 28/2,0 90/2,0 100/2,0
This list is not up to date. The floating element design of the 50/3.5
macro was an Olympus first. The 50/2 macro has a floating element design as
well. The 82/2 is one of those listed with automatic correction mechanism
against close focus aberrations; so it presumably has floating elements as
well. All internal focusing lenses (180/2, 250/2, 350/2.8) have floating
elements by definition.

So, All the rest is of a "plain" construction, among them: 16/3,5 21/3,5
24, 28 and 35/2,8 35/2,0 - as well, 50/3,5; 2,0; 1,8; 1,4; 1,2 and so
on..... and finally 85/2,0 is without floating element design. I have
serious doughts if 85/2,0 has ever had the mechanism, it is quite simple
and cheap lens like 35/2,0.
Best photos anyway, Zbigniew Turon (Zuiko 85/2,0 owner)
