"Some list members wondered about the few S Zuikos and why they are
called in this way. My thesis is, that these lenses were the first in
the Zuiko line which used plastique."


<ahem> "Plastic" and "plastique" are not the same thing. "Plastique" is
the French word for plastic explosive.

I've heard of products that are deliberately designed to
"self-destruct," but this is ridiculous! <grin>
