I am here on a rare excursion from the Macro World Forum.
I was pleasantly surprised to see renewed interest in OM cameras & lenses and film. Although I use OM4s my only Zuiko lenses are bellows and macro ones plus the two shift lenses. I was disappointed to not see images from the last two here. I am very pleased with my 24mm shift, in particular, but have no scanned images. My other lenses are Tamron SP, including some rarities.
There are very many first-class images posted here.
Actually they where all taken with:
Canon EOS 5D ,Olympus OM 50mm f/1.4 Zuiko MC Auto-S
(except the first image, which was taken with Canon EF 50mm f/1.4)

It's so good to see a Canon camera user valuing the performance of a Zuiko lens!

Do any posters here have experience with the OM 35mm f/2.8 to contribute? You know, center sharpness, edge sharpness, color, contrast, etc. Thanks!
Two shots with the OM 35f2.8 on 40D. First at f5.6 and second at f8. Very sharp lens overall but not very contrasty. Hope this helps.
I can't comment on the 35/2.8, but the 35/2 is quite nice, I still need to put it through some more controlled shooting to to get a better feel for it.
Excellent set of photographs Qwerty64 .Simple,tidy and strong composition,well balanced colours.Too bad my OM 28/3.5 was lousy (too much CA) so I'v sold it.
The 100% is equally as sharp. And sorry about the noisy sky, I had to add noise to keep the JPEG
compression from banding. It was pretty bad - so I added noise to the sky area. The lesser of two evils.
