(FT4) Olympus 50mm macro lens for Micro Four Thirds coming by end of the year!

As you can see from the roadmap on top Olympus has the plan to release a 50mm macro lens for Micro Four Thirds. We now have been told by our sources that Olympus delayed the release of that lens til end of the year to anticipate the release of the just announced [shoplink 23577]Olympus 45mm f/1.8[/shoplink] lens. I think that was a good move made by Oly because we already have a [shoplink 14794]45mm macro lens[/shoplink] from Panasonic. We have been told the 50mm macro will be on a very high level. Don’t know what you think, but Olympus is making a damn good job with lenses now! And I know there will be more lenses coming soon!
