What happens to the crazy the prototypes that Olympus produced before the
production versions?  In particular, I'd be interested to see the 18/3.5,
135/4.5 and Bellows-S.  Are they (hopefully) in some Olympus museum
somewhere?

Also, what ever happened to that Japaneese book that was supposed to come
out about the history of the OM system?  i belive they produced one on the
PenF, but i haven't seen it.  has anyone?

BTW, my vote for my all time favorite screen goes to the original 1-4
version.  that center spot is perfect size and very sharp!  i often prfer
this to the 2-4 for critical focus....
