The Zuiko 100/2 fascinates me. Who wouldn't be in awe of its sheer weight
and that front element, not to mention the results it can deliver !
However, in my experience it doesn't give of its best all that easily, and I
find it quite a challenge to understand. Which is why I posted the comparative
results.
My opinion still is that to get the best of this lens, it is imperative to
control / eliminate all sources of vibration. In all the forms it comes in. More
than for many lenses.
I should also mention that the two slides I compared were created about 2
years ago, I have only just got around to scanning them on my "new" 9-years
old film scanner.
Your mileage may vary !!
