it doesn't seem to work that way. The Olympus lenses designed for the 4/3 cameras seems to be pretty much the same size & weight as their 135 equivalents.
However, they do seem to be able to do other interesting things, such as a 35-100 fixed f/2 zoom, which is equivalent to a 70-200/2, and a 150/2 - equivalent to 300/2. http://www.olympus-esystem.com/dea/products/lens/index.html -- Cheers, Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Shel Belinkoff > Sent: 16 September 2006 23:13 > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: Re: 50/1.4 or 1.2 for the DSLR Bodies > > Yes, I understood that, but my thinking was that perhaps now > a redesign > with the smaller sensor and mirror areas in mind, and > perhaps newer, more > advanced construction techniques and materials, could yield > even smaller > lenses.
