Always good to see another fan of the 135mm. Not for nothing was it the "standard" telephoto for a long time. It remains my favorite portrait focal length, giving enough distance from non-models and camera shy folks to feel comfortable. An f/2 would be terrific.

Hello all,

What I miss in the Olympus lineup though is a 135mm f2 . I had one for my Canon FD system for years and it was incredible. I know the zuiko 135mm f2.8 is supposed to be good but I want that extra stop and 100mm is not long enough and 180mm f2 is too big. Is there another option that I do not know about? How is the Vivitar 135mm f2.3? or the Soligor 135mm f2? anything else?

Thanks,

James
