That just reminded me thta the 80mm is mainly intended
for 1:1 slide and copy work. It is a very flat field
lens and will render very flat images since that is
what it is designed to do. The 90mm Tamron is a good
macro lens, very sharp and cheap compared to the
Zuiko. So angain I would recommend the 135/4.5 becuase
it is much more unique, unless of course you are
thinking of doing copy or work with very 2D subjects.
