Bill,
I have records in my database at
http://www.skipwilliams.com/olympus/zuiko_ebay_history.htm.
20/2 $400 (6 auctions)
20/3.5 $235 (11)
38/2.8 $343 (5)
38/3.5 $239 (7)
So about 50-75% more for the newer, automatic, brigher lenses.
Beware, you need specialized lighting for many magnification ranges,
especially with the 20mm lenses. It can be hard to get reflective light
onto the subject so close to the lens. Transmitted light isn't a problem.
Olympus has the nifty little reflectors called Lieberkuhn Reflectors to
solve much of the reflected lighting problem. Data at

Subject: [OM] Bellows macro lenses

You know, I do not think I have ever seen an auction, or a sale by a list
member, for any of the bellows lenses. Correct that, I have seen the 80mm
and 135mm. Does anyone own the other ones (i.e. the older 38 and 20 and
the
newer versions)? Any idea on the price? Seem rare!!!!
