I've got more than enough OM bodies but I can sometimes be tempted by
lenses or other goodies that can do triple duty on a Canon 5D or E-M5
body. I have no OM lens shorter than 24mm nor longer than the 85-250.
For primes I have 24/2.8, 28/2.8, 35/2.8, 50/1.4/1.8/3.5, 85/2.0, 90/2.5
(Vivitar with 1:1 adapter), 135/3.5 and 200/4. I could, perhaps, be
tempted by a 200/5 (IQ??) or 300/4.5. For non-Zuiko primes I have a
Minolta 58/1.2 (only for MFT) and an Orion 500/5.6 mirror (eyepieces for
spotting scope, T2 for camera mount) and the blunderbuss, a Celestron 8"
f/10 mirror lens/scope
I have a few Zuiko zooms: 35-70/3.5-4.5, 65-200/4 (maybe the only one in
existence with clear rear element :-)), 85-250/5 and a bunch of Kiron
zooms (all in the 28-150 range... the Kiron 70-150/4 my favorite... that
and the 35-70/3.5-4.5 were my walk-around favorites)
I don't have any TCs except for the Vivitar Macro Focusing TC in OM
mount. I have an OM bellows but no bellows mount lenses... because I
don't think I need any. What do you have that supplements this
over-stocked kit that I just can't do without. :-)
