Roger:
I have the 28 mm F/ 2 Kiron also. It is physically much larger than a
Zuiko, and I'm sure it would not fit in the Olympus hard case.
Performance is outstanding. This lens always goes in the bag, along with
the 50 mm /F 1.4, and the 85 mm F/ 2.
These sell for $50~60 USD in da Bay. I bought mine for $94 (new) from
Adorama. Buy a generic lens case, and save yourself some $$.
