Let me guess, Tom - you paid way too much for yours in your zuikoholic (tm;)
lust. Was it much more than the $250 I paid for mine?

Yes, but what's more important to me, is the focal length which is much more
versatile than 50mm (way too long indoors, in many cases) or 35 (way too
short outdoors, in many cases). Yes, 40mm is also present in a 35-70mm zoom,
but not at F2. Then there is the close focusing.

No, but if Oly reads the list then, after they've sued me for my site;),
maybe they can get back into business and reintroduce the 40/2 to take it
away from its (IMHO) fake collector's item status back as a user's lens,
please?
