Hi Mike...Thanks for post...Lens arrived today and its a beauty...KEH
LN-...I liked the combination of 35/85mm f2.8 Variable focus does'nt bother
me and with the BIN price $89.98 I could'nt pass on it...Check out what a
35/80mm f2.8 Zuiko would cost ...Seller was quick to answer any question in
depth...The "small scratch" turned out to be a tiny blemish...Anxious to see
the results of a test roll....Marty
