I would highly recommend the Zuiko 300 f4.5, but it does depend what you
want to do as well. The 300 is a wonderful lens, and performs well even
wide open and is still compact enough that you might actually use it! :)
the problem I would see with the 85-250 is that it really does not have all
that much reach over the 200 that (it sounds like) you already have.
