My first impression in Stephen's post was it was just a consumer grade
Canon AF 28-70 since nowhere did I notice it was mentioned to be a
"L-series" lens.
As you aptly pointed out in your post, "consumer zooms" tend to be junk
and I have to believe any Zuiko 50/1.8 in reasonably good shape would
blow one away in image quality. In fact, I think even a Stylus Epic or
Yashica T4 probably is better than a "consumer zoom" ;-)
Professional quality zooms become a much different situation and can
rival the image quality of primes in normal everyday shooting
conditions.
