I'm drooling. If you could post your results, w/ OM body used, I would be
a happy camper.
Thanks.

I'd like to do is to shoot some comparison slides with the two lenses. Is
there anyone out there willing to part with their 180/2.8 for a few weeks
for me to shoot some tests? I'd pay shipping both ways.

Skip, is it the VMC version of the lens (Vivitar Series 200mm f3)?
I have a minty 200/3 VMC and a Tamron 180/2.5 EX+ that I will get some
test shots together as well.
The close focus on these two lenses is amazing.
If anyone has shot with a Tamron 300/2.8 (IF version) or the Tamron 400/f4
and not the 180/2.5, the 180 is a baby version of those lenses right down
to the detachable (neat) lens hood.
The Tamron, ofcourse, takes their 1.4x SP converter which is right up
there with the Zuiko 1.4x (I shoot with as well).
