Hello Zukaholics,

Been lurking for many months and gleaming info from your vast knowledge
base.   Thanks for the many tips.    Have a few questions:

I traded a computer monitor that I was not going to use for some Oly
camera stuff  (sight unseen).  It was an OM-10 with manual adaptor, T20
flash, Samigon winder and 4 lenses.   Everything is in decent shape
except for 2 of the lenses.

1) The Zuiko 50/1.8 has what looks like the beginnings of frost on one
or more of the inner elements. ( Spider web looking stuff in the coating
)    I don't know if this affects picture quality yet.  Is this mold?
Bad storage?   Can it be cleaned?

2)  Another lens, has this same thing to a much lesser extent.   It's a
zoom;  80-200 /4.5 Macro.  It has a 52mm filter and has the words " MC
AUTO ZOOM  CPC  PHASE 2  CCT. " on the front ring.  The zoom + focus are
done with one outer ring.   What brand of lens is this?   Any good?

3)  The other lenses were a 135/2.8 Tamron and an 85-210/3.8 Soligor
Macro Zoom.   Any opinions on these?

Regards,
Ted Slotwinski
