The Oly 17/2.8 is a great walkaround lens for any M4/3 camera. I've barely touched it since getting a Pany 20/1.7, time to move it on. Clean, clear glass with no issues, mechanically like new. I used a stepup ring to attach a plastic hood, which caused some cosmetic wear on the front beauty ring visible in the pix. Lens, rear cap and UV filter included. Don't have the finder, not sure I can find the front cap.

Soligor 100/2.0 was recently CLAd (Clean, Lube, Adjust) at Essex Camera Service. It is a compact, very fast medium telephoto lens, in Pentax K mount, and carries an "MC" designation for multi-coated. I haven't found an online Soligor serial number deciphering key, so I'm not sure who built the lens. Lets in lots of light, with minimal depth-of-field wide-open. Check out the photo of my wheel mess, shot at f/2.0 on a Panasonic GF1.

There is some very light residual haze in the rear element group, visible only when viewed with an extremely bright led flashlight. Glass is otherwise in nice shape, no fungus or separation. Aperture blades are free of oil and snappy. Focus/aperture rings work smoothly. Note that minimum focus is about 1.5m/5', I suppose to keep the lens compact. You'll need an extension tube or closeup filters to shoot closer in.
