The Olympus ZD 35-100mm f2.0 has it also, more so then the 40-150 Pro. Which I don't really like as much as the images from the 50-200 SWD......they just have something a bit more special about them.

Yeah, the 35-100 SHG has smooth OOF transition unmatched by any m4/3 zoom. I wouldn't have swapped it out for the 40-150 Pro if it focused faster but I really need the Pro's reflexes (and reach). As far as sharpness they seem on par.

35-100/2.0

Cheers,

Rick
