I've been underwhelmed by my 100-300 (used on a GH2), and frankly, I haven't really seen any photos on the web that lead me to believe I have a sub-par copy. From a sharpness standpoint, my four thirds 70-300 is unquestionably a superior lens.

SLRGear didn't test the 100-300 but they did test the 43 70-300 and m43 75-300.  The 70-300 doesn't look that good, which is to be expected for an older optical design.

The key for any lens is good lighting.  Here is an original and crop from my 100-300.
