BIG winner. One of the very best MF zooms ever made. There are lots of 
posts singing its praises in the archives. And take a look at Gary's 
lens tests <http://members.aol.com/olympusom/lenstests/default.htm>.

On the other hand, it is big and heavy and has a fragile tripod mount. 
Neither tripod mount nor bayonet mount hood is easily found if not 
purchased with the lens. The Oly tripod mount for the 300/4.5, 65-116 
and 85-250/5 may be adapted to fit it.
