I have a 100-500mm Zeiss zoom with an OM mount. It says on the body that it
was made in Japan under license from Carl Zeiss Jena. I don't use this lens
much but keep it for backpacking when I need something long without too much
weight. I have a 120-600 Vivitar zoom that is a better quality lens but it
weighs a ton. /jmac

It may be a Carl Zeiss Jena, but these were shot by an Austin, TX
photographer with a Zeiss 100-500mm 'macro' zoom mounted on OM bodies:
