Not only is it cost prohibitive, unless you're talking about one of the rarer 
more expensive Zuikos, (250/2 for one), it's probably not that important. 
Entirely too much emphasis is being placed on multi-coated vs. single-coated 
lenses. There may only be very specific instances where the difference 
becomes noticeable. It depends on your shooting style, and if the 
single-coating lens IS the problem, or is it something else that you are 
doing that you can adjust and compensate for.
