I have never heard such a story. I may have missed it, but AFAIK it's a
"real" Zuiko. Can anyone give a conclusive answer to this?
> Any comment on the quality of this lens?
I do not have it myself, but I know that Erwin Voogt is very satisfied with
his 28-48/4. I believe it is a very good (be it somewhat slow) lens with
little distortion.

Wow! And all this in one month's time? Not bad!

Aaaah, now you're talking! Of course you don't _need_ it all, but you do at
least need the 8/2.8, 16/3.5, 18/3.5, 21/2, 24/2, 28/2, 40/2, 50/1.2,
50/1.4, 35-80/2.8, 85/2, 90/2, 100/2, 135/2.8, 180/2, 250/2, 300/4.5,
350/2.8, 400/6.3, 500/8, 600/6.5, 1000/11.
Uuuuhhhh, what else, of course: the OM-2n, OM-4Ti, OM-3Ti, lots of flash
accessories, a PMT-35, the rest of the macro gear, microscopes, .....
Hmmm, come to think of it, you _do_ need it all ;))))))))
More seriously though, a 4Ti couldn't hurt (though a 2SP should be a very
nice camera too), also, a 50/1.4, and either an 85/2 or a 90/2 or a 100/2
couldn't hurt either. These lenses, however, have mainly been mentioned for
the gain in speed (not in focal length). Other than that, I don't see any
real gaps in the line-up, as you've covered things nicely from 24mm to
250mm...
Cheers!
