Has the best MFT lens (the Olympus 75mm) been designed by Sigma?

 

Most of you will agree with me when I say the [shoplink 31284]Olympus 75mm f/1.8[/shoplink] is the best MFT lens yet. But has it been really designed by Olympus? Egami (translation here) spotted a Sigma patent describing exactly the 75mm lens. And by comparing the lens design images I posted on top it’s easy to guess that the lens has been indeed designed by Sigma!

I am really surprised to see that, and I am wondering what this Sigma-Olympus partnership will bring us in future. My secret hope is that Sigma will also share the Foveon tech :)
