I don't think it is an Olympus lens... Olympus made a 150/4.0 and a 250/5.0
for the Pen, and a 100-200/5.0 zoom, but never a 180. There were some
third-party lenses made for Pen way back when, mostly preset (as is the
Olympus 250/5.0). On a Pen the 180mm gives about a 225mm full-frame
equivalent view. There was a Vivitar 135mm Pen-mount lens on auction not too
long ago.
