    I've been thinking of getting a 500 to 600 cadiotropic lens for
    my OM2.  Does anyone have any recommendations as to who makes 
    decent long lenses?   Any recommendations as to reputable mail 
    order houses to buy from?

    Just glancing through the back pages of Popular Photography, I've
    seen ads for Soligar, Sigma, and Olympus (Zuiko) lenses.  The 
    Olympus lenses would almost certainly be the sharpest and most 
    expensive.   I'm sure there are other manufacturers that I haven't 
    named.

    Is it usually the case that neutral density filters are provided with
    the lens, or must they be bought separately?  Is this one of those
    "options" that you have to be careful of when buying mail order?


    Thanks for the information,

    Dan Neiman
