olympus 75mm vs olympus 60mm

I'm looking at both of these lenses.  Of course every review of the 75mm lens is superb but macro capabilities would be nice.  How does the 60 mm perform at infinity?  I rarely need 1:1 in a macro so I'm thinking of just picking up the 75mm and also getting a close up diopter for times when I need to get a bit closer.  I'm curious to hear from others who use these lenses.

The 60mm is just fine at infinity. It's a very good all-rounder. The 75mm is one of the best lenses I've ever owned. I've used it for closeup stuff with a set of Kenko extenders—image quality is dandy—but I prefer the 60mm for this purpose due to the more precise framing it offers.

I do not own, nor have I used, the 75mm. At this point, I have less than a year of experience with the 60 mm macro. I bought it  for close-up work.  It is stellar. It is startlingly light, all plastic, except the mount. That said, there is no indication of any problems with wear or the mechanisms. It is my first macro lens and I find it much more effective than working with tubes or close-up lenses.  It also seems fine for normal photographic applications.

Thanks for your thoughts and experiences.  For now I'll start with the 75.  I already have the 17 1.8 and 45 1.8.  I'm astounded by the sharpness and look from these lenses.
