Try Paul at www.olympusguy.com. He got me my tripod collar and a back cap
for the 135/4.5 about 4 months ago.
FYI, don't assume that the same cap fits both the 80/4 and the 135/4.5. I
have two deep Olympus caps for those lenses, and they are NOT the
same. They are currently packed away as my house is being remodeled,
otherwise, I'd check to see which is the longer one. You should be able to
measure the back lens extension of the two lenses to figure it out. I'd
order two of the longer cap, then they'd be interchangeable.

Now my problem with Olympus America. I called to get a tripod collar, which
several of you indicated I could buy for $19 from them. Well, after being
transfered to at leat 10 people, I had to settle for, "Those items have been
discontinued, and are no longer available." (I was also looking for a rear
lens cap to a 80/4 macro or 135/4.5 macro.) After being transfered to every
department and receiving a less than cordial response from my request, I was
not about to argue that they still make and sell items (or is everything new
old stock?) that require these accessories. Can anybody help me out here?
Is there a person that I can call specifically who is sympathetic to the
plight of Zuikoholics? I was pretty frustrated that Customer Service sent me
Product Info to Customer Service to Parts to Product Info to Customer Service
to Tech Support (digital) to Customer Service to Tech Support-35mm (couldn't
be transfered and had to call back for this one) and so on. Help!!!!
