Nope . . . have it (135/2.8 Zuiko MC) . . . use it reasonably often . . . 
as often as the other lengths . . . but only need one, thank you.

It's one of the "forgotten" fixed focal lengths and I've found it a handy 
one to have!  A little longer than the 100mm, but still can be hand held 
reasonably well.  f/2.8 for that length is enough speed for nearly all uses 
and the Zuiko is still fairly light and compact given its speed and focal 
length . . . maintaining a 55mm filter ring.
