Warren,
To be honest, I really don't expect the Zuiko to be sharper. The 350 was a
surprise find and priced acceptably. The addition of one F stop and my desire
to own a 350 again before I die are the primary reasons I bought it. It's
condition is better than my first posting indicated, definitely not mint,
probably about a KEH "Excellent" grade. I will do comparative testing between
the two lenses and will post my results to the list. Of course, if the Tamron
tests sharper, now what do I do?
