What have you just BOUGHT?

Olympus E-500 by Bryan Costin, on Flickr

I picked up a beautiful condition Olympus Zuiko Digital 50mm f2.0 Macro lens for my old E-500 DSLR, which I usually use with manual-focus glass. It's is a highly regarded prime lens for the original Four-Thirds system, where it's effectively a 100mm lens. I can also use it with an adapter on my M43 bodies.

This was purchased at an old-school camera store called Stroudsburg Foto on Main Street in Stroudsburg, PA. If you're in the area I highly recommend stopping in. It's been family owned for 60 years and has a really cool selection of modern and used items for sale. We were on vacation and I wasn't planning on buying anything (do we ever?) but I saw this lens with some other Four-Thirds gear in his showcase and he gave me a really good price.

Here's a test almost-macro of a cute little wildflower which decided to grow in our gravel driveway.
