Are these taken with the Zeiss lens or the Olympus? I have the Olympus ZD 50-200/2.8-3.5. It is an excellent performer and I love the fact that it has a good, solid tripod mounting foot. While I don't use such long lenses all that often, every time I've gone out shooting with it I've gotten excellent results. As the only long lens I use anymore, used with and without 1.4x teleconverter, it was well worth its price.
