Did Cosina make some of the bodies for Olympus as well? In regards to OMPC
and OM-10...are these decent bodies? I had an OM-10 at one point and liked
it for the most part..but sold it thru Eb*y. I had heard that they were
poorly manufactured..most plasticky.

Thanks again.

The 3.5-4.5 is probably the most common one, lots of them were sold in
sets with OMPCs. The 4.8 (and the 70-210/4.5-5.6) was made by Cosina to
sell with the OM-2000, which was not nearly the sales success the OMPC was.

I assume here you mean everything offered by Olympus America.

Of course. the f4 is a fine lens and the Cosina is not junk, just not as
good as the others.
