Could be. I saw an article on macro photography by a guy named Rokach, 
I believe, who seemed to have a close relationship with Olympus and who 
gave picture credits to some OM lenses that did not yet exist. I 
particularly remember a 200mm macro lens. This was after a particularly 
long spell of no new OM lens introductions so I suspect some lens 
development occurred that was nipped in the bud as Olympus decided to 
just milk the system for the remaining profit in it. I think the 
35-80/2.8 was the only one of a number of new designs that ever made it 
to market.
