Hope you're able to find one, Bryan. I heard from the dealer I got mine from that shipments from OM have really slowed down. He said my lens was the last one they had received, and that was 3 months ago.
Here in Europe, no new lenses for the past 6 months and not the remotest indication new lenses are coming.
Any thoughts on this?
Yeah, thanks. No luck. I leave tomorrow evening, so maybe I’ll try one again on a future trip.

The pictures of the owls are awesome, Mitesh. 1/50 sec - are you shooting them handheld?
Thank you, my friend, I’m glad you enjoyed them! Yes, all handheld. At 300-400mm range or greater, I’m finding 1/20 to be the point where my keeper rate decreases pretty substantially. Now, this may also be due in part to the location as I’m not always on even or stable footing to get a certain perspective. In any case, being unencumbered by a tripod at these focal lengths and shutter speeds is nothing short of remarkable, IMHO.
Shot with in camera focus stacking. I then stacked several of the RAWs via C1 and Helicon. I am trying the in camera stacking mostly to make getting focus easier than bracketing where you must focus on the nearest part of the subject.
