I still have my Olympus OM-10 which was fully automatic but by fitting a small attachment (£25 cost at the time) it was immediately converted to a OM-1/OM-2 allowing you to switch from one version to the other at the turn of a dial (the best of both worlds).
I've got the usual 28mm wide angle, 50mm standard issue, 300mm telephoto but my favourit all rounder is my 28-115mm.
Take care of it....very nice  |
Olympus makes excellent cameras. I still have my OM-10 as well with pretty much the same set up. It's been all over the world with me.
I've made the jump to digital about 5 years ago, so now my OM-10 is stored away in an old camera bag.
A couple of years ago I bought a digital Olympus E-500. Haven't had any regrets about that.
It's amazing how SLR camera bodies alone were $600 or more back in the eighties when I got my OM-10, and that was without any lenses. Now days you see good film SLR's with at least one lens for $200 or so.
My, how the digital camera age as changed things. My kids won't even know what film is.
