Yes I love the OMZ180/2.8, the images come out of it are always better then
other other long zuikos I have. May be it is due to the weight and easier to
focus but I believe it actually has higher resolution. Chroma is a issue for
the lens so you need to stop down for high contrast scenes.

Here again the images from the lens:

C.H. Ling is a big fan of this OM-Z, despite he's pointed out its
somehow noticeable chroma.

OTOH, it seems to me there are two kinds of 180/2: in one of them you
can mount a 1.4X-A

But I may be wrong!

Years ago I bought a 180mm/F2.8 for a friend and shipped it to canada to
help him avoid excessive import duty.
So I did get to use it for a week on my 2s before sending it on, but I
never owned one myself.

It seemed a really nice lens, although a little heavy.

Any owners have any thoughts on this lens? I was thinking of possibly
getting one to use on my A7.

Used prices seem quite reasonable, if you are prepared to wait. I bid on
one a few weeks back and it went for just over my  bid of ~230.
