Strength:

Compact, sturdy and supremely sharp.

Weakness:

Push-pull zooms always lose precision in framing quickly.

This is one of my favorite all-time lenses. It is tack sharp at all but max range. A truly wonderful street photograph and wildlife lens. I was glad to see Olympus make a similar lens for digital, and hope it is as good as this old trooper.

Strength:

Seems to me well built / solid.

Weakness:

None yet but am partial to OM/ZUIKO products.

Zuiko zoom 100mm-200mm f5. I am interested in hearing from anyone else who may have this same lens. Have only taken 4 (yes only 4) pictures so far with this lens mounted on OM-1. Pictures are very very sharp edge to edge. When did this lens go out of production? I like it but don''t know much about it.

Customer Service

None required yet.
