Hi all:

For optical formulas borrowed from the Olympus Pen Fx line, note that they
only had to cover a 18 x 24 mm frame.  On an OM they are covering a 24 x 36 mm
frame.  The bottom line is that on an OM there is more image making demand
being placed on these lenses, outside the originally intended circle of
coverage.  A parallel would be fitting a 350 mm f/2.8 Zuiko to a Mamiya M645
(if it works).  The edge definition then becomes suspect.
