No flames here George, but a couple of comments:
I don't find the two touch less than user freindly, I would say it is
more a matter of personal preference, fact is, personally, I CAN'T STAND
single touch zooms!
I find the 75-150 is actually fairly sharp myself, I wonder if you have
a poor sample. Contrast is a little lower than many of the other Zuikos,
but I find the lens to be very sharp in comparison to many other zooms I
have tried.
