OM-D & E.Zuiko 100/2.8

[spiderfrank]

Hello guys, I just bought an Om Zuiko 100/2.8: it's the single coated version, and I'm now playing with it on my E-M5. I think it's a nice lens, but I found very little about it, in the net... Any toughts about this "neglected hero"?

They come up reasonably often on eBay...
Go High $
Get snapped up fast.

Speaks volumes. They were a very popular portrait lens on the OM 35mm bodies.

I think they're "neglected" in so far as the 85/2 and the 100/2 are more famous and more expensive. I'm a big fan of that lens. Quite compact too.

yes, speaking about legacy glass, people always search for the fastest lenses, but when they were the state of the art, only a few could use them: they were "specialized" tools, not the lens of the "man of the street"... Ok, they are stunning and beautiful, but also their cheaper brothers are perfectly able to bring home the job
