- That 75-150/4 on Skips photo doestn't look right. Isn't it the old 200/5?
An early prototype of a 75-150?
- Is that larger lens behind the the OM1 a 180/2.8 or a 200/4? What's the
smaller lens behind the OM1? (both 200/4 and 200/5? So where is the
180/2.8?)
- That 35 shift does look different from what I recall ...
- There are about 3 or 4 lenses that look like the 100/2.8 or 85/2 ....
Can we tag all these lenses?

Getting even more confused,
Daan
