People who don't use lens caps (obviously the scumm of the earth) either don't know where to get them or their not too concerned about protecting their equipment. With e-voil bay you take your chances.

If I'm not mistaken ...and I may be...the 135mm f2.8 has a 55mm filter ring with built-in lens hood. The 135mm f3.5 has a 49mm ring. So stuffing a 135 f2.8 into a 135 f3.5 might be a tight fit...?? It may work to protect the lens , but still you should have a lens cap...55mm caps are a little harder to find..

You are not mistaken concerning the filter sizes. Maybe it's the snob in me that is convinced that people who don't use
lens caps are not quite right.  B&H, John H., and other
sources sell Olympus lens caps, so it's not too difficult to
retain the original configuration.
