Being no photographer and a mere OM custodian, I have to admit to really 
enjoying snapping shots with the 40/2 attached to an OM-1n. They have a 
wonderful feel together, and I find it very convenient to grab little scenes 
with a couple of people in a room, or at a street corner. It does not feel like 
using a wide angle while still capturing a little more in the frame than a 
50mm. Light, tight, and balanced. FWIW... - Phil
