General opinion on this list will probably rank them accordingly:
1) 35-70/3.6
2) 35-70/3.5-4.5
3) 35-70/4
539) 35-70/3.5-4.8

I would concur with this ranking.  Only lens of the group I haven't actually
used is the F4.  I rely on the opinions of others as to it's ranking.  

You got pretty close to a fang on that lens.  You'll absolutely love it, I
believe.  The Soligor you have is a nice lens IMHO, but it's BIG.  The
3.5-4.5 version is just a sweet little lens.  Congratulations.

Hi Zuikoholics!

Last weekend I bought my first Zuiko for my OM-2n at ebay (besides the 
50/1.8, of course). I confess to be a third party man till today. My 
Tokina 35-70/3.5 and my Soligor 35-70/2.5-3.5 make a good job, but the 
Zuiko 35-70/3.5-4.5 looks so cute and would also fit in the standard 
1,4N bag. Must be the smallest of its kind.
Paid about 80$ all inclusive, (promised) mint condition. The parcel 
hasn't arrived yet. Can't wait to put it on!
Which 35-70mm is the best in your opinion, non-Zuikos included?

Frank
