Well, one motivation for the tests is a guidance for MTF users. The 50/2 may be nice (and possibly tested at a later stage) but the other lenses are more interesting because there's no equivalent offer.[/quote]
A strange selection of hugely expensive as well as big and heavy Zuiko lenses, which have been built for a by now pretty obsolete system. The 50/2 is said to be one of the sharpest on this planet and would surely be of interest. It is also somewhat more affordable than the other stuff on your list. Finally, there are some equivalent offers around when you have the MFT mount in mind:
Olympus Zuiko 7-14mm f/4 - one would probably prefer the Pana 7-14, a native MFT lens, and way cheaper too.
Olympus Zuiko 150mm f/2 - the Canon 135 mm f/2.0 L is very nice, at less than half the money and weight.
