Quite a nice beast. I like the bokeh and subject isolation opportunities--seems much nicer than the f2.8 version. I don't like the sawtooth bokeh when stopped down a bit--I think the aperture mechanisms have evolved. https://phillipreeve.net/blog/review-olympus-180mm-2-0-om-zuiko-auto-t/ See bokeh shape at F2.8. I won't be tempted to sell my Cosina Voigtländer Apo Lanthar 180/4 in OM mount that is dynamite at macro with or w/o extension and at intermediate distances. OK at infinity but not its strong suit and bokeh at intermediate distances can get busy. It is a gem and fits in your pocket. I am surprised they haven't reissued in other mounts such as Sony FE. Did I say how small and compact it is?
