100mm f2 and 180mm 2.8 are very good portrait lens !

Objet : [OM] Newby Intro + Zuiko prime lens question



Hi All,

I thought it is time I should cease lurking and let myself be known.  I
cut my photography teeth with an OM-1n in the late 70s - early 80s.
After many years using c***n gear, I have now seen the error of my ways
and recently bought an OM-4 in near mint condition.  I am head over
heals about this body and can't wait to start shooting. It came with a
50/f1.4 with a six digit s/n.  Unfortunately I learnt too late that I
should have sought a post 1,100,000 s/n 50/f1.4 lens. How much of a set
back can this be?

I have decided with this kit to stick to using 3 or 4 primes to maximize
my  picture taking enjoyment, and hopefully image sharpness/quality.
Anyway, As I am still basically an amateur I was hoping some one could
advise me on what primes to aim for.  Aside from the 50mm I already
have, I am after a 28mm and a portrait lens - say 85/f2, 100/f2 or f2.8,
or perhaps a 135 f2.8.

Any help appreciated.
