Thanks everybody for the information. I have sent gurantee picture from my
E1 camera to Olympus Europe. Skip, I wanted to try Digital Zuiko 300/2,8 but
;-( I think that I´ll never taste it.
Cheers,
Dave

from Stephen Gandy in California cameraquest.com or from Kendai in Japan.

means 300mm on an E-1). (My experience was with surfers about 150-200m
from the tide line.) Try a Zuiko 300/4.5 first, which is relatively
inexpensive. Longer? A Tamron SP or Zuiko 500/8 will also work, and gives
you a 1000mm equiv. lens. I've seen some very nice shots done with the
mirror lenses on an E-1. If the subjects are closer, the 135/2.8 produces
nice results on the E-1 in a very compact size.

DigitalZuiko 300/2,8 or 50-200/2,8-3,5 but here in my city it´s impossible
to find one. So I think I can buy this adaptor and attach an OM telephoto if
I find one. would it be possible to attach one N*k*n lens or another third
party lens to my E1? Which lens is the most suitable to this type of
photography? I would need a lens with a very fast manual focus. I phoned to
Olympus and they told me this adaptor doesn´t exist in Spain!!!! If somebody
could buy it for me I would be very pleased...
