Hi all,

Two lenses kit? 28/2 and 85/2. All with 49mm thread, and good for low
light, too. However, it's great to have a 21/3.5 in the pocket ;-)

The body? Most likely the OM-2n, or OM-1(n) if it's going to be COLD.

Returning to the original question, I find both 135mm (MC 2.8 and 3.5)
quite similar in picture quality terms, but the 3.5 shows severe flare in
backlight situations. On the other hand, the 3.5 *feels* (to me) much
lighter.

Regards,
