Thanks for the advice..

I think no matter what, I'll be selling my Zuiko 28mm/2.8, I am very unhappy
with it.  It's just a question of how much can I get for it, and what will
it go to fund?

I am thinking about a 21mm now after reading a little bit, but composition
is way too hard for my unskilled eyes to cope with..  So I think 24mm is the
lowest focal length I'll go.

I have seen results from a 24mm/2.8 and I have enjoyed it, so I look forward
to it..

Albert
