After I sold my 75-150 Zuiko because it didn't focus close enough, I bought
a used Hanimex f4.5 80 - 200mm MC one-touch zoom, made in Korea. It has a
macro position throughout the zoom range and I was very impressed with it
after trying it out well at the time. Instead of the usual D-o-F button it
has a small serrated wheel to push round to close the aperture. I haven't
used it that much since then though because the 35 - 70 covers most of what
I usually need at the long end - I even have a 300mm f5.6 Ohnar mirror lens
that I've probably haven't used more than two or three times.
