Hi Peter, and welcome back. I have narrowed my choice of telephoto down to a 135/2.8 and a 50-250/5, with a Tamron 400/5.6 just in case I need longer). The zoom is really nice to use and gives lovely crisp photos. It takes no tripod ring, but I use a Camcane monopod with Stalker grip to rest the lens if necessary.

I'm Peter Leyssens and I just re-re-resubcribed to this Olympus mailing list. I think I first joined in 1996 (might be earlier) with the remnants of an interest in astrophoto, but moved on to general photography soon after that. I've got 2 pictures on TOPE, and you'll always find me defending OM gear on photo.net.

My equipment has stabilised on my trusty OM-3, a great OM-4Ti, and 28/2.8, 50/1.8 (sticky diaphragm), 50/1.4, 90/2.0 and 75-150/4.0 lenses. Of these, I've recently only used the 90/2.0, though the 50/1.8 and the 28/2.8 have been used a lot in the past. I got the 50/1.4 (MC) almost for free when I bought some other stuff but I didn't really try it yet. I'm not a very big fan of the 75-150/4.0.
