I have no experience with that 28/1.4, but it's said to be great. A more
suitable comparison would be the Nikkor 28/2 against the equivalent Zuiko,
and I did such a test -- for astrophotography reasons, I have to admit, so
my results may not be universally valid.


Wide-open, the Nikkor was somewhat better than the Zuiko... but from 2.8 and
beyond, the Zuiko was MUCH better -- even though it won't improve much
beyonf f/4!

And now my Z 28/2 is broken :-(

Cheers,
