Yes, it is so light system and with very good quality lenses. It has found its way inside the bags of photographers who enjoy mountain walking.
Lovely picture!

One of my favorite threads on RFF; always so happy when it's bumped up.
I have my OM4 out this week and am starting to worry about its longevity; some issues with the film advance creeping in. I got cold feet on an OM3 auction a few months ago and really regret it. Just want to make sure I have an OM to shoot for as long as possible!

I have some cameras (Leica M5, Canon AE-01, Kiev19M, Mamiya C220, Bronica EC...) and the experience of shooting with the OM-1n and its lenses is special. I always come back to this system: small, light, really big viewfinder, lovely lenses...

About the Zuiko 35mm 2.0, for some it is the "black sheep"of Zuiko lenses. For me is really great. But I think there is a reason to think it is the black sheep: it isn't so easy to focus as other lenses. But when you take if, it's so sweet...

Thanks, Shab, I think that'd be the solution to find a well cared for OM1 and hope it goes the distance. I shoot an M5 as well and it's another can of reliability worms!

Both of these are fantastic. Perfect sense of freedom and joy in the first, and movement and power in the second. Chapeau!
