Hi folks,

Re the Angenieux 35 - 70 zoom

This was tested by Modern Photography June 1984.  It came out extremely 
well. High resolution and contrast.  Cost $1,100 in 1984, so go figure, as the 
saying goes.. Weight 1lb 4 1/2 oz. (582g)

I think it would give the Zuiko 35-80 a run for its money, apart from the 
qualities that the Zuiko special glass in that lens, impart..

Some figures ( I'm not going to type this ALL out <g> )

Best resolution

@35mm f/5.6, f/8 & f/11  69 lpmm
@50mm f/5.6, f/8  72 lpmm
@70mm f/8 63 lpmm

best contrast 
@35mm f/8 80%
@50mm f/8 69%
@70mm f/8 65%

Would be a great lens to have.

Brian
