Enjoyed and appreciated those nice comparison shots. The CV 180 in the line up would tell the story. Interesting how well the Nikkor did.

OOps, big typo. You lopped 20 mm off the length of the CV! Nice, were it true.

Funny how we are so non-linear. Holding the two Olys, one in each hand, the f5
seems much relatively smaller and lighter
than the numbers show.

Here are my culprits, with carrying accessories. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=15145>
And in a line-up. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=15147>

...

but the Z. 200mm f5 MC is slightly easier to acquire. I am 99%
certain Jeff K
has one or two though they are hard to
find.

Don't matter to me now. Not acquiring more OM mount lenses.
