- the 135's barrel was massive. And it was heavy as lead, not speaking of the
ultra slow 42mm thread, my reason for the change.
I don't remember the takumar 135/3.5 as being "massive". I believe the
135/2.8 Zuiko was bigger and the Z135/3.5 a little smaller. I no longer
have an example to check. The Spotmatic body was definitely bigger than
my OM1. I had an SP500 which was slightly lighter. The 42mm thread was a
PITA, the big negative. However the OM bayonet mount was bulky and added
to the base of the lens.
