Hi,

I am the happy owner of a 100 mm/2, which I think is a wonderful lens. Big
and heavy compared to the 85 and 100/2.8 lenses, but also better, I think,
and with a useful semi-macro function.

I have only once seen a Zuiko 90 mm and with all the applause for this lens,
I wonder if it is actually more desirable than the 100/2 (apart from the
full macro facility).

According to an old test, the 100 seems slightly better at bigger apertures,
but there might be other differences in the 90's favour that can't be judged
from those test figures.

What's your verdict?

Thank you, Moose, for the informative coverage of the 50/55 mm lenses. My 55
mm is one of the radioactive ones, I think. I'd better test how it performs,
colourwise, compared to the 50/1.4 and 1.8.

Regards, Lars
