Re: [OM] Perfect method

No, I don't think so.  While an f/2 lens is certainly important for some 
uses when you're talking about OM Zuikos you also have a choice of 21/2, 
24/2, 35/2, 40/2 and 50/2.0 or 1.8.  In other words plenty of other 
choices in the general vicinity of 28mm are also available at f/2.  So, 
I ask again, why 28mm?
