Keith,
Sorry! You DON'T get another chance at the lens. :) The previous post was
a joke. :)
Carrie DID write the email I posted, but my feelings & stated reply to her
was jes' joshing around.
And I'll have to pass on the data sheets you received -- they'd only end up
in the special place I keep all things fact related. The garage...
What I suggest YOU do is continue your search for the 100/2 and get one when
you find it -- it really lives up to it's reputation.

Gasp! Cchoke! You mean... I get a second chance at it!
Wow! I'm living right!
Please keep me informed.
I really don't mind that it's a 2.0 instead of a 2.8. What *I* like is that
it's a Zuiko and an Auto-T. All else is window dressing.
Let me know how all this will work out. I'll be glad to reimburse you for
any
out-of-pocket costs.
Let me know, and I'll send you my shipping address...
Oh by the way, did you get my message about the factory data sheets I now
have
available?
