Don't forget that the f/2 lenses have a "floating mechanism against
close focus aberrations" according to The OM System Lens Handbook. The
100/2 will focus to 0.7m (2.3'), the 100/2.8 will focus to 1m (3.3')
and the 85/2 will focus to 0.85m (2.5') - that is a 1/5 magnification
on the close focus of the 100/2 - almost a macro. That said, the
100/2.8 is very compact while the 100/2 is big and heavy. Where's my
free lunch...
