You have to remember the the 3.5 macro was NOT an inexpensive addition to the OM line up. It was the 50mm version of their very professional system of macro lenses. It is a very fine lens. The F2 was added later when Olympus decided to sacrifice some size to making lenses as fast or faster than the competition. I don't think that the F2 is that much better than the 3.5, just faster and maybe more consistent over a wider range of F stops. You might want to stop down some with the 3.5.
