Subject: [OM] 100mm Zuiko Olympus f 2.0
Hi
I'm considering buying a 100mm f 2.0 Olympus Zuiko lens from a shop in my
home town. It's currently priced at £140. Does that sound reasonable? or
should i keep hunting?
Thanks
David
Having looked at Gary Reese's lens test data, the 100mm / f2 Zuiko looks to
be equal to or superior to the 90mm / f2 macro at f8 and smaller apertures
and only marginally less superior at f5.6 and larger apertures.
Assuming the optics are in good condition 140 UKP looks to be a bargain
price ........... grab it!
