You know, I mentioned lens parts to staff here in Ottawa (Focuscenter). I
don't need any, but I was curious as to what they would say. They asked an
Olympus rep who knew of the 7-10 yr press release. He was of the opinion
that you would be VERY luck to find parts such as these just 2 yrs. from
now.

Someone should tell Olympus America that! I enquired about a 100/2 front
element about 6 months ago and was told it was NLA. I politely pointed out
that the lens is still in production, but that made no difference. As long
as their computers list it as NLA, they can't order it. I suppose I could
have pushed the issue, but I didn't need a new front element that badly.
