I don't have the Zuiko 90mm to compare, but I do have the Vivitar S1 90/2.5
and 1:1 adapter. It is very good, even for Paul's asking price. I think I
paid only $18 plus shipping for mine (came from the auction site), but it
was a lucky gamble as it was described as having serious problems. I did
have to tighten 2 screws on the mount.
But then, in listening to my opinion on lens quality, you need to take into
account that I think the Vivitar 2x macro with Zuiko 50/1.8 does a pretty
decent job, too.
