One can call this the "inverse law of Zuiko petiteness." Within most
focal lengths of Zuikos, there is a trade-off in image rendering ability
for weight reduction. As soon as ones breaks free of their desire to
have a light weight system, potential image quality goes up.

There is a confounding effect here, also.  It is that the heavier Zuikos
are also the more expensive ones.
