My Olympus is F3,5/35mm, a very contrasted lens - even too much - but IMHO better.

Luis, I also have a Rollei 35SE. For a while I felt that the lens wasn't great but I finally realized that I had trouble holding the camera steady because of the unfamiliar ergonomics. Guessing the focus can also be a problem in low light with slow film (you were using TMX100). I eventually learned to hold the camera a different way and my pictures now look fine. But the Olympus mju does have a really contrasty lens, at least the mju ii does. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 505-262-4085 _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
