If you want a small and light 100mm the Nikon E 100 f2.8 is about the same size as the Olympus but a couple of ounces lighter and has great IQ. In fact of all the E series lenses it is considered the best. It is even liked by the E series haters. They are also much easier to find and much cheaper. I have seen NOS Nikon 100s go for what a used but good shape OM sells for. The other thing I personally don't like about the old Olympus lenses is the aperture ring being at the front of the lens body, drives me nuts because I accidentally hit it when trying to focus.
