My advice would be different - I'd take your camera to the shop, put the
lens on and have a look through. Unless things look obviously bad through
the viewfinder (soft image, hard to focus, anything like that) it'll
probably be worth buying the lens. Zuiko lenses are a bit thin on the
ground and usually very expensive in the UK, so I'd give this one a go.
Thanks for your comments about my webpages, by the way. You asked how long
it took me to get to the stage I'm at - well, I bought my OM-1 on July 12th
1997, and it's been a continuous learning experience ever since then. Took
a couple of years to work out what all the numbers and switches meant -
didn't have a manual! After that progress was a bit quicker but I'm still
learning lots all the time.
Cheers,
Roger

It looks like the best advice I am getting is to wait for a Zuiko lens. I
appreciate the instruction, more than you know.
