ccroy,
Your photos look very nice. Sharp and colorful. A computer monitor is not the greatest test of a lens' qualities as they differ so much.
At least one gentleman, whom I consider well informed, asserts that Osawa made it's own lenses. Most think that they branded lenses from other suppliers. Difficult to know now as Osawa folded in 1984-85.

One member did posts some images taken with this lens around Jan time, but cannot remember who it was. The conclusion was that it was an average lens but good for the price.
I've a 400mm that's about to end on ebay, which is again, not bad but very cheap.
