They also HAD (and may have again as the reserve was not reached when I
checked) a 90-180mm S1 flat field for OM, but the description sent up some
warning flags. The 90mm S1 must not be too rare as I have two of them. The
one on eBay does not mention having the matching 1:1 optical converter that
mine in OM mount lacks.
