OM, I've become a Zuikoholic!

Ok...it has begun....

Stated with this.


OM1N (I think) with Olympus strap.
50mm 1.8

Great condition!

Then this....



OM2N with 28mm 3.5, hood and case.

I love how these cameras feel in the hand, and the view finder is big! Small yet big...don't think any other manufacturer has done this.

Next post will compare sizes with other cameras.

Peace
 
Now for some size comparison pics....



OM1 vs. Canon Canonet QL17 – GIII

Next



OM2N vs. Canon FTB QL


Even the lens is larger



Peace
 
My only complaint of the 28/3.5 is the dimmer viewfinder. But I have taken hundreds of photos with the 3.5 over the years and never was disappointed.
 
Late Zuiko 50/1.4 (ser > 1.1Mio), 10 stop ND filter, Half Moon Bay on an exotic slide film (for me at least: Rollei CR 200 Pro):

This is gorgeous.
 
Haven't contributed much to this thread of late. :eek:

Took some portraits of a good friend yesterday and decided to use my favourite OM combination ... my beloved black OM-1 and 50mm f1.2 Zuiko.

Damn I love this camera and lens ... this was at f 1.2

Is there a year/ serial number cutoff for the OM4 as far as the battery issues? Is there a fix?

Thanks

Peace
 
Just got a OM4 with 28 3.5, 50 1.8 (mij), 135 3.5 all mint. Also a near mint 35 2.
Winder 2 will be here tomorrow.......

It is getting out of control!
 
I love the 75-150/4. Most people don't but I have always had great results with them. Have had 4 but gave away two and still have 2. Don't use them all that often since I'm more a W-A/normal shooter.

The 28/3.5 is a great little lens but you get a dimmer viewfinder than with the f/2.8.

But you can set the 28/3.5 to hyperfocal and use it as a point and shoot. (especially on one of the auto-exposure models)

Makes it very handy for "street" shooting. I used to do this on an OM-1 with the mirror locked up and shoot from the hip. lots of fun.
 
I love my OM10

I love my OM10

Dear all,

My OM10 is my favorite camera for ever. It was given by my father to me a long time ago, too much long time.

I just replaced the foam two weeks ago, thanks to Aki Asashi for the supply.

I think it was last sunday, an happy breakfast in front of the TV.

Well I purchased another lens of the bay and the seller said that there some
spots in the lens, Wow I see spot's and dust's to much for my liking. Back it
goes.

No Fear, I cleaned it out myself, It came out really clean the spots and dust
is gone, will have to attack the front elements there's a little fungus there.
