I think the Olympus O Product and Olympus Ecru were P&S cameras that were
built to be collectors items in the first place, rather than photographers
cameras. When you look at the picture on
http://olympus.cab.infoweb.ne.jp/Special/CameraHistory/oproduct.html
it seems to be designed for our notorious Spacemen. You can buy new ones for
about US$750-850.
The Ecru on the other hand that can be seen on
http://olympus.cab.infoweb.ne.jp/Special/CameraHistory/ecur.html
looks like it's designed as a 6x6 roll film spy camera (because no one will
guess it's a camera). They're much cheaper: US$275 new.
I think the specs are irrelevant. You're not supposed to take pictures with
them. People would only get scared. Same as with an Olympus OM-1n Gold. Just
waste your money on them, and look at them every day.
