Hi Lluis,

Thanks for looking at my images. On my Oly 4/3, focal length is doubled. 
Hence, the 50 Summicron is the equivalent of a 100mm, and the 60 Elmarit 
would be a 120mm.  With the longer lens, which focuses down to 10 inches, I 
would be able to get a larger image on the sensor.

I have been considering this, but will have to wait and see what develops. 
Most of my images come from my yard and neighborhood, and, at 79, I don't 
see much change in the future.  Better closeups would give me more options.
