Welcome.  I just joined this list a couple weeks about after digging out my
cases of OM stuff to sell it on eBay.  Now I have sold some, but this damn
list has been such a source of information and inspiration, that I may now
sell my Contax G2 because I won't need it with my rekindled love for
Olympus.

I am a zuikoholic.

I got my first OM1 in 1977 and still have it.

PS I've got a few things for sale....what ya need?

Good evening everyone-
    I subscribed to the list to get more information about my 24 year
crush-the OM series.
    My first 35mm was a 1979 OM-1, a high school graduation gift.  Used it
with a Zuiko 50mm 1.8 for years.  Battery on/off lever broke. (couldn't find
a repair place) Got Olympus Stylus Zoom 115.  Got published using it.  Got
OM-2, Sigma APO 70-210 3.5, Zuiko 50mm 1.4.  Sunday, bought Zuiko 28mm 2.8.
(also a set of front-mount close up lenses)
    I'm just getting back into real photography.  I'm curious to read what
the list thinks are the best Zuiko lenses (lens-test wise) as well which
ones serve best.  I've visited the websites, now I want opinions from the
true believers.
    I'm probably selling the Sigma eventually and getting Olympus.  I love
fast lenses but the weight is a bit annoying.
    Also, are the 50mm 1.4s with serial # over 1,100,000 really better (that
is, no yellowing?)
    Thanks in advance-
    KathyD
