In my efforts to build my OM kit, I have acquired two 35-70 zoom lenses.

They are very different.

The one that appears newest is 35-70 f4 S. Zuiko sn 279xxx. It uses 55mm
filters.

The second is also 35-70 (duh) f3.5~4.5 S. Zuiko sn 154xxx. It uses 49mm
filters.  It also has the words "Close Focus" printed on the distance ring.
It will focus to about 12".

I only need to keep one - must recoup some of the cost of the OM4
somehow.....

Which would be recommended to keep?  I have use both and like them.  Both
are about the same (nearly perfect) condition glass/f-stop/appearance wise.

Thanks for your help.

Ric
