I never noticed it before, but since I now have the 90/2 and 100/2 sitting 
side-by-side, I just realized that, besides the 90/2 having the controls 
backwards, it's also the only Zuiko with the focal length numbers white instead 
of the usual green.  I haven't looked at every Zuiko I've got, but a quick 
survey of the ones in plain sight in the cabinet shows they all have green 
focal length numbers.

Bastard works good, though.  Can't beat the 9-blade bokeh.  :-)
