Although it also makes it difficult to set your focal length accurately. I find this counter-intuitive, although I can see why it moves the weight towards the camera when zoomed to 210mm. Pulling the zoom towards you zooms in a while pushing it away will zoom out. First off, the lens features a push/pull zoom function (which can lead to bad jokes). And given how the lens functions, I had difficulty hand-holding the lens with the OM-1n attached. You will want to keep that shutter speed to 1/250″ when working with the lens at the whole 210mm focal point. Even if I attached a motor drive, it would not be enough to get that centre of balance back.
