Superb. I really like Zuikos for their neatness and blended design across the range.

I have not tried either of my Zuikos (1.8/50 4/35-70). How do they rank for IQ?

Zuiko 21mm f2 ED glass, that's great. Here's mine:

The maddest Zuikos I can think of are ED glass 100mm, 50mm f1.2, 180mm f2. I am crazy, too. I used OM-1N until last summer, then converted those lenses to Sigma SD14. Excellent repair is available for not too much money. I just got the rear element assembly replaced on my 50mm f1.2 at a place in NJ, US. It had fungus separation. He cleaned my 180mm f2 also. No worries about so old lenses. They are great.

So how do you do that? I've been collecting a few m42 and pk mounts to convert some zuikos and contax/zeiss but haven't had a proper go yet.
Any tips would be apreciated. Smile

Koji
I let mine go to Attila. Wink
I think it is safer with him. From the zuikos my favorite is the 2/21mm, 3.5/24mm shift, and 2/24mm.
For normal thrue Tele FL's I prefer Zeiss over Zuiko. The Zuiko wides however are simply fanastic. Very Happy

Don't worry guys, I hardly use tele-photo lenses. My Zuiko fav so far is 21/2, 24/2, and 50/2 macro.

Wow, how long did it take for you to collect all those?

I have never used any Zuiko and unlikely will be using any if I stay will my current system but I have seen many fantastic pictures with Zuiko. I was especially astonished with the 24 shift. Was tempted to get one until I found out the price.
