Hi Zuiks:

A list member (John Lind?) once remarked that if we were rational people
we would all own a N*k*n and three lenses.

I am writing my "take-home" final for the photography class that I'm
taking at the University of Idaho.  One question is to advise a young
person who currently owns no equipment, but is interested in gradually
acquiring a quality system over time.  They have a current budget of
about $1,000, but it is also likely that they will receive additional
gear over time from friends and relatives for graduation, Christmas,
birthdays, etc.

Regretfully, I don't see how I could recommend Olympus, in this
scenario.  So far, I have come up with a N*k*n FM (or FM2 or FM2n), the
50 mm f/1.8, and the 105 mm f/2.5.

Questions:
1.  What would the "third lens" be?
2.  How would you answer this question?

BTW, the instructor is a long-time N*k*n user.

Thanks!

Bill Stanke
