The other claims are extracted from the OM System Lens Handbook

I think we can accept them, even if we didn't immediately recognise them!

Should go and search its technical sheet which I keep somewhere to answer
the other questions, but I'm pretty sure the quoted ones are true. One or
two observations: it doesn't feel like a sturdy construction, it rather
feels a bit flimsy; but mine never failed (I keep it in mint condition BTW,
only wish I had its hard case). Considering what I've learned here about
bokeh, I'd say its spherical aberration at full aperture gives it a nice
bokeh. Stepping down to 5.6 renders superb definition and colour rendition,
can't remember annoying flare in any picture. My 21 F3.5 OTOH has some
beautiful flare in certain conditions. Wow I'm just remembering how did I
shoot la Capilla Sixtina with the 28mm... "fine detail shown even in dark
areas"

Good luck

Fernando
