Of course, Per is absolutely right -- the Zuiko 300/f4.5 is a 6-element
lens. Moreover, the subject line of this thread should read "300 f4.5"
and not "350 f4.5".

Per has done us all a service by reminding us not to rely blindly on
data provided within the original post. Now, if only journalists could
learn the same lesson... :-)

To the MC issue: Per, you may be disappoined -- your lens is not MC.
My own 300/f4.5 is serial #1113xx, and it's still SC.
