Walt's right. Here's another way of thinking of it.
That lens on an OM camera will fill the frame with an object 24 x 36 mm. On
your E-1, the same lens will show the same object at the same size - but you
won't see so much of it because the frame is smaller.

If I took my 90/2.8 Tamron macro and put it on one of my Graphics and shot
something 1:1, I would get a circle in the middle of a much larger piece of

piece of film, or sensor, and only get part of it. 1:1 is 1:1.
OK. I think I have it . . . unless it leaves me again. Bill Barber
