My guess is a lens that can be handheld and affordable by most.   Certainly 
the technology is there to make it f- whatever, however with small  bodies 
why would you want an expensive set of weights in you camera bag.  I  have 
had had both the Olympus 300mm 4.5 and the 400mm f6.3, both of which were  
pretty easy to work with.  Each were replaced by the Tamron SP adaptall  
lenses that were at f2.8 on the 300mm and f4 on the 400mm.  Great lenses  and 
heavy as heck. Although both have been used handheld, 99% of the time they  are 
on a tripod.  Fast long glass means a heavy lens.  Don't think  Olympus has 
pitched its tent in the heavy camp.  Bill Barber
