Good luck in finding one. If you get frustrated, or find the cost too steep, you might consider the next best thing, the Tamron 35-105mm f/2.8 Adaptall II. It's no longer made and was replaced with the 28-105/2.8 Adaptall II. The 35-105 version is not only significantly smaller and lighter (but big and heavy by Zuiko standards), it also runs circles around the 28-105/2.8 in several important performance parameters; resolving power, contrast and [lack of] aberration being among them. Also has excellent flare control (as my recent glass factory shoot demonstrated to me with high contrast and high quantities of specular light sources.
