Listen Joel, the little lens is a serious one ... honestly ! :>).

You love the 85/2, I know ( and I am pretty keen on it as well), well that looks pretty good on a chrome OM1/2 in terms of retro chic. The trouble is, the hood is a little deep to keep on all the time.

Chris,
Now I follow you. Of course, not all of us have the 40/2 with which to trinketize our OM jewelry. <gg>

Retro only as far as the early 70s then ;-). You're right, I'm geting my periods mixed... perhaps on purpose. But an OM1 with a small, prime lens and hood is definitely old-fashioned and 50s looking.
