The 100/2.8 is a delightful lens. Optical quality is very good, though the
early, single-coated versions were somewhat prone to flare in adverse
lighting. In any case, see that you get the lens shade (it is identical with
that for the 85/2, a rigid rubber screw-on type).

For several years, my only OM lenses were this one (single-coated) and
a 35/2.8. I was so poor I had to sell it in order to buy the 85/2. Now I have
found another and bought it. Enough said.
