I was hoping it was something else besides the normal one...like a f/3.5
Macro or the rare f/2.8 non-pancake lens.

Thanks anyway,

Skip,

The lens is F. Zuiko Auto-S 1:1.8 f=38mm serial #301854. The aperture
blades 
seem a little slow to return, but otherwise the lens is in great shape.

For anyone else who may be interested I also have the Bellows 2 with slide 
copier, also in great condition.

Darin
