Hi, I have the screwmount Zeiss Jena 135mm too. It's a really good lens, and a lot lighter than the f/2.8 version. And like the f/2.8 it has a built-in hood! Very nice for travel. I thought about including it with the Oly 75mm and the Contax-mount Zeiss, but decided not to as I know its performance is pretty much identical to the f/2.8 at same apertures. Its color rendition is just a touch cooler.

Interesting to know that the performance is pretty much the same as the f2.8.  It also just shows how good the Oly 75 is.  Its an amazing lens isnt it.
