I was looking for a lens to reverse on a longer focal length for macro
around 2 times. The 80mm is 31mm long from the mount. The rear glass extends
this somewhat and reduces the working distance. I might find another lens
(enlarger lens probably) to use instead.
If the Zuiko was shorter, I could use it for normal and stacked
applications.
