Um, ok? Reviews of the Oly 60mm macro have thus far been uniformly glowing. Some reviewers even say it's among the very best M43 lenses to date. You don't have to use it for macro, after all. Apparently it's a very good 60mm lens for all purposes.

I never said it was a bad lens. the 120 mm focal length has limited use.  It's still a short telephoto lens.  It won't do for indoor work, groups etc.. For that matter the 45 2.8 is limited too but you don't have to back up as far to include the same scene as you would with that olympus 60 mm.
