I dunno - I have used a number of lenses in my life before, and as you
guy may
know from my various posts, the Zuiko 90/2.0 lives on my OM-1.
Still, my old Mamiya 65mm lens is at this stage the best lens I have
ever used,
period. I am very discerning over technical image quality most of the
time.
The lenses are damn fine. It's got nothing to do with cost, if you ask
me.
