Hi all Zuiks.

here is a question that has bothered me for some time, (though really
nothing important). Over the years I have accummulated a number of prime
Zuikos and two zooms. All lenses have this little white mark on the
aperture ring at the highes aperture setting (i.e. 2,8) ?  Does any one
know what it is supposed to indicate? couldnot find anything in the archive
on this..

Assuming you don't mean a usage mark :-) but the little white line, I think it's to indicate the clickstop for the largest aperture. My guess is the stop between it and the next largest is very small so if they print the aperture number right on the click, it would bunch up to the next largest number.
