If so, you'll have company :-)

About the price of lenses, no doubt Zeiss is expensive. So are some of the high-end Zuiks. Overall, Zuiko has more offerings than Zeiss as well as a much stronger macro system. Contax has a modern flash that Oly doesn't. Still Zeiss has some interesting lenses that Oly doesn't, like a 35 1.4 and 85 1.4. Naturally, lens selection must be studied very carefully before switching systems.

Just answering the question, not trying to start a flame war...
